Habituation, the process of becoming accustomed to a stimulus and thus responding less to it over time, is more likely to occur in individuals who are less sensitive to noise. Those with low noise sensitivity are better able to adapt or habituate to noise compared to individuals with high noise sensitivity, tinnitus, or hearing loss, who may find noise more intrusive or distressing.
