| Dependent variable: Misophonia Total Score (MTS). Model 1 includes sensory processing styles: Low Registration, Sensation Seeking, Sensory Sensitivity, and Sensory Avoiding (measured by the Adolescent/Adult Sensory Profile – A/ASP). Model 2 includes additional covariates: age, gender, educational level, psychiatric history, and psychological symptoms (Depression, Anxiety, and Stress subscales from DASS-21). Significant predictors are shown in bold (P | ||||||
