Abstract: Social problems arise when individuals with sensory sensitivities or developmental disabilities face restrictions at school or work due to overwhelming external stimuli. Online tools and telework can help these individuals engage with society from familiar settings. However, face-to-face interactions remain essential. This study explores the effects of a Quiet Room on individuals with sensory sensitivities by analyzing changes in tension levels through heart rate measurements and questionnaires. By comparing participants with and without sensory sensitivity, the research highlights the potential of Quiet Room in helping these individuals navigate social interactions while maintaining appropriate boundaries.
