Childhood exposure to variations in acoustic stimuli can impact individuals later in life, potentially contributing to abnormal acoustic experiences in adulthood, such as tinnitus, hyperacusis, and hidden hearing loss. However, the mechanisms behind these long-term effects remain poorly understood.

Social, Societal, and Economic Burden of Mal De Debarquement Syndrome

Noise and Noise Sensitivity is negatively associated with the mental health of children and adolescents, but socioeconomic status should be  considered. 
- Highly associated with internalizing, externalizing, and total behavioral problems
- Low-income groups: degree of association with problem behaviors was higher
- Relationship between noise sensitivity and externalization problems disappeared in the high-income group.

Noise and noise sensitivity

Exposure to typical ambient noise levels (e.g., from highways, railways, and roads) is correlated with multiple negative mental health indices in school children, including anxiety, depression, and poorer classroom behavior. This correlation between mental health and ambient noise is particularly pronounced in children with early biological risks.
