This study aimed to explore hearing thresholds, self\u2010reported auditory difficulties, central auditory processing measures, and the presence of tinnitus and hyperacusis in individuals with FHP with and without chronic neck pain compared with controls.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Fifty individuals with FHP were included and classified into two groups according to the presence of nonspecific chronic neck pain: FHP with neck pain and FHP\u2010only. Fifty individuals without FHP or neck pain constituted the control group. Tinnitus presence was recorded in all participants. Hearing levels were assessed using pure\u2010tone audiometry, and subjective hearing difficulties were evaluated with the Turkish version of the Amsterdam Inventory for Auditory Disability and Handicap (T\u2010AIADH). Central auditory processing was examined using the Modulation Detection Test (MDT) and the Temporal Fine Structure\u2013Adaptive Frequency (TFS\u2013AF) test. Sound tolerance was assessed using the Khalfa Hyperacusis Questionnaire.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      No significant differences were observed among the groups in pure\u2010tone hearing thresholds, MDT, TFS\u2013AF, or hyperacusis scores (\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      &gt; 0.05).
