Noise sensitivity is a critical factor influencing individuals’ subjective responses to various types of noise. Since its introduction in 1978, Weinstein’s Noise Sensitivity Scale(WNSS) has been widely utilized across numerous studies. This paper presents the adaptation of the WNSS for Korean-speaking populations and evaluates its reliability and validity. A detailed description of the translation and adaptation process is reported, highlighting partial modifications made to enhance comprehension and ease of response. Subsequently, the reliability and validity of the Korean version were assessed using data collected from studies employing this version. Reliability was measured based on the internal consistency of the 21 items, while the validity was assessed through factor analysis. The results indicated that the Korean version met the criteria for reliability and validity. Future research may involve performing test-retest reliability assessments with the same respondents and conducting comparative analyses with other noise sensitivity scales, including short versions of the WNSS.
