One of the core processes presumably underlying misophonia - a condition characterized by decreased tolerance for specific sounds - is associative learning. Using behavioral, computational, and neural analyses of emotional learning and memory processes to understand the unknown behavioral and neural mechanisms underlying misophonia's associative learning and memory, the study team will evaluate whether interference with the reconsolidation of a reactivated misophonia memory with propranolol can alleviate aversive reaction to misophonia-related cues.
