title: The Application of Intervention Coding Methodology to Describe the Tinnitus E-Programme, an Internet-Delivered Self-Help Intervention for Tinnitus.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  This article describes the Tinnitus E-Programme, a previously untested Internet-delivered self-help intervention for tinnitus.
  
  
  METHODS
  Intervention coding methodology was applied to describe the intervention components, techniques, and mode of delivery.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The intervention consists of 5 self-management intervention components, 5 behavior change techniques, and 3 modes of Internet delivery, which aim to promote relaxation behavior and reduce tinnitus distress.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The intervention coding provided a reliable method for reporting Internet-delivered self-help interventions. It will be used to facilitate our understanding of the intervention's potential mechanisms of change and will guide future evaluation work.
