Effectiveness of a Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Behavioral Mobile Intervention for Misophonia

Misophonia is characterized by strong emotional and physiological reactions to specific trigger sounds and may interfere with daily functioning and emotional well-being. This randomized controlled trial will evaluate the effectiveness of a mobile application based on mindfulness-based cognitive behavioral interventions for adults with misophonia symptoms. A total of 60 participants will be randomly assigned to either an intervention group or a control group. Participants in the intervention group will use a three-week mobile intervention that includes psychoeducation, cognitive behavioral techniques, gradual exposure to trigger sounds, mindfulness, breathing and relaxation exercises, and self-monitoring tools. The control group will not receive the mobile intervention during the study period. Outcomes will be assessed before the intervention, immediately after the three-week intervention, and four weeks after the intervention. The main outcome will be change in misophonia symptoms. Secondary outcomes will include depression, anxiety, stress, and difficulties in emotion regulation.
