Clinical Trial: Stress Through Audition: Uptake, Recovery, Oscillations During Nature Exposure

U.S., Oct. 6 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07857239) titled 'Stress Through Audition: Uptake, Recovery, Oscillations During Nature Exposure' on Sept. 16.

Brief Summary: The protocol the investigators propose aims to address certain gaps by developing a multimodal paradigm, based on:
