This article addresses electrohypersensitivity (EHS) in the context of public health and EMF-related health concerns. It focuses on distinguishing beliefs about EMF effects from what is currently supported by scientific evidence. The provided text notes ongoing debate and concern and calls for critical assessment of both beliefs and empirical findings.

This cross-sectional questionnaire study (n=100) examined whether electrohypersensitivity (EHS) overlaps with high sensory processing sensitivity (HSPS). A higher proportion of HSPS was observed among those reporting EHS symptoms, alongside significant differences in anxiety/depression symptomatology and EMF-related risk perception and avoidance strategies. The authors interpret the results as supporting an association between EHS and HSPS, while noting that this does not establish whether EM radiation directly causes EHS symptoms.
