Efficacy of Internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy and applied relaxation for tinnitus distress in the United States (ICBT vs IAR study): A Randomized Clinical Trial

This data set was generated as a part of the clinical trial to examine the efficacy of the Internet-based cognitive behavioural therapy (ICBT) and applied relaxation (IAR) for tinnitus distress in the US population (Clinicaltrials.gov registration no NCT04335812). The study used a parallel randomized controlled trial (RCT) design (n=126). Both the ICBT and IAR treatments were undertaken as Internet-based interventions with minimal guidance from an audiologist. The ICBT group received the full CBT program over an 8 week period. The IAR group received 8 weeks of only applied relaxation before having access to the other CBT modules for a further 4 weeks.The attached documents include the dataset, demographic questionnaire and metadata which provide additional details about the dataset.
