In a survey of 4373 office workers, sampled from 47 office sites across the U.K., correlates of work-related illness were investigated. Results showed that a variety of factors influence the prevalence of 10 work-related symptoms which are characteristic of the “sick building syndrome”. Path analysis was used to develop a model to represent causal associations. This model proposes that work-related illness is affected by architectural/environmental factors, individual/psychological factors, and occupational/organizational factors. The implications of this for health promotion are outlined.

Tinnitus is a common otologic symptom and probably the most troublesome. Tinnitus causes a number of physical and psychological consequences, that interfere with the quality of life of the patient. Many authors believe that the presence of tinnitus in children is a matter of lesser importance than in adults because it is met less frequently and would be a fleeting symptom, inoffensive for them (Graham, 1981). In addition, the prevalence of tinnitus during adolescence and even in young adults is increasing, possibly as a consequence of the increased ambient noise (Bulbul SF, Shargorodsky J). Various therapeutic approaches have generated different results, which led us to consider the role of psychological factors, hence the need to underline the particularities of this symptom in childhood.
