Summary

This study looked at whether women with obesity perceive sounds they make themselves as quieter than sounds made by others, compared to healthy-weight women. 37 women completed a listening task where they compared the loudness of tones they triggered versus tones triggered by the researcher. The goal was to understand how the brain processes self-generated sounds in obesity, which may help explain differences in body awareness.
