Psychoacoustic and cognitive predictors of sound sensitivity in healthy young adults

Key Points

• Sound sensitivity is influenced by cognitive predictors such as attention and memory capacity, impacting daily life.
• Findings indicate that individuals with lower auditory processing skills report increased sound sensitivity.
• Assessment focused on psychoacoustic measures and cognitive assessments across multiple young adult participants.
• This highlights the potential for tailored interventions to reduce sound sensitivity based on cognitive profiles.
