I'll add these more recent papers as well. The Tinnitus Functional Index is a measure that captures many of the important aspects described in the 2008 article.

Subject: [AUDITORY] Tinnitus severity rating
Dear list,
I’m interested in assessing tinnitus symptoms in a test population and was wondering if there was a consensus on the best practice for doing so (i.e. which is the preferred or least controversial rating scale? Do you feel a given assessment method has flaws or substantial pros)?
Thank you for any help,
Joe
