Anorexia study reveals how the brain processes Self-Generated sounds

NCT ID NCT06298526

First seen Jun 26, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 26, 2026

Summary

This study looked at how women with anorexia nervosa perceive sounds they make themselves compared to sounds made by others. Researchers tested 31 women (some with anorexia, some healthy) by having them compare the loudness of tones they triggered versus tones triggered by the experimenter. The goal was to see if the brain's normal ability to dampen self-generated sounds is altered in anorexia, which could help understand sensory processing in the disorder.
