Memory Issues
Working memory is a limited resource. The theory relating to memory and tinnitus relies on this fact. Tinnitus makes constant demands on the auditory processing parts of the brain. Due to its ongoing and persistent nature, the available working memory diminishes, resulting in poor memory recall.
Several studies have shown that there's a potential impact on the effectiveness of working memory in those with tinnitus. However, further research is needed to determine if this is affected by the severity of the tinnitus.
