Noise-canceling headphones: Potential risks behind convenience
2025-11-04
Prolonged use of noise-canceling headphones may cause the brain to "forget" how to filter noise, especially during adolescence when the brain's complex auditory processing abilities are not yet fully developed. When noise-canceling headphones block out low-to-mid-frequency ambient sounds (such as traffic white noise) for extended periods, the activity of the superior temporal gyrus, the region...
