SDD20: Misophonia in the Community College Classroom

Hours: 1.5

Many community college students already have to deal with a great amount of anxiety when sitting in a classroom. Some of these students have the added burden of suffering in silence with a psychological condition called misophonia. Their "hatred of sound" can easily distract them as they become fixated on sound triggers, such as gum chewing and popping, pen clicking, sniffling, and other sounds that are just annoying to other people. This talk will bring awareness to misophonia while offering some suggestions on how to support students who might suffer from the condition.

A participant walks away with:

(1) an awareness about how misophonia affects our students and

(2) strategies for helping to make our classrooms safe for students with misophonia.
