Correlations between dominant tinnitus pitch and audiometric variables computed using data for all 67 participants. HL = hearing loss. Corrected signifi cance <.006.

Audiometric variable	Number of ears	Correlation coeffi cient	P value
Edge of HL in the steeper ear	60	.096	.467
Edge of HL in the less-steep ear	46	.074	.627
Slope of HL in the steeper ear	67	.058	.640
Slope of HL in the less-steep ear	67	− .140	.261
Degree of HL in the steeper ear	67	− .255	.038
Degree of HL in the less-steep ear	67	− .284	.020
Frequency of the worst hearing level in the steeper ear	67	− .001	.995
Frequency of the worst hearing level in the less-steep ear	67	.031	.806
