Does sensitivity to the world around us affect our emotions and behaviors?
20 October 2017
Each of us have different levels of sensitivity for sensory stimuli in our environment. For example, how bothered are you by itchy labels in clothing, fluorescent lights that flicker, or a tap that won't stop dripping?
We are interested in how level of sensory sensitivity can affect our emotions and behaviors, and if this relationship between sensory sensitivity, emotions and behaviors changes at different points in our lives.
