Successive surveys of noise sensitivity (WNS-6B) in university students.

This research's research question is: Does noise sensitivity fluctuate? . As a first, preliminary attempt, we asked university students to answer questions about their noise sensitivity in class over the course of a week for two years from 2022. We used the WNS-6B questionnaire. As a result, we found that the noise sensitivity of university students fluctuates. In particular, we found that the fluctuation was large in the high-sensitivity group of students. At the same time, we conducted a survey using a questionnaire to measure the satisfaction of students' lives. We are examining the factors that cause fluctuations in noise sensitivity from various perspectives.
