Means and standard deviations, latent (Study 1) and Spearman’s (Study 2) intercorrelations, and reliability estimates for the S-Five.

Measure	Min–Max	Study 1		Study 2		EXT	INT	IMP	OUT	THR
		M	SD	M	SD
1. S-Five: External Appr.	0–50	28.97	15.26	27.31	15.70	(0.92/0.92)	0.51	0.59	0.57	0.58
2. S-Five: Internal Appr.	0–50	17.78	15.96	16.85	14.74	0.40	(0.93/0.88)	0.64	0.72	0.73
3. S-Five: Impact	0–50	12.19	13.83	14.76	14.08	0.48	0.61	(0.90/0.91)	0.65	0.79
4. S-Five: Outbursts	0–50	16.20	13.91	16.50	13.97	0.54	0.61	0.55	(0.87/0.86)	0.69
5. S-Five: Threat	0–50	26.85	16.55	28.98	17.28	0.56	0.62	0.72	0.63	(0.92/0.89)

N = 639 (Study 1); N = 235 (Study 2). Cells below the diagonal represent latent intercorrelations for Study 1; Cells above the diagonal represent Spearman’s correlation coefficients (ρ) for Study 2. S-Five = Selective Sound Sensitivity Syndrome Scale; EXT = Externalising Appraisals, INT = Internalising Appraisals, IMP = Impact, OUT = Outbursts, THR = Threat. McDonald’s ω (McDonald, 1999) based on the respective confirmatory factor analyses are in parentheses on the main diagonal (on left = Study 1, right = Study 2). All correlations for study 1 were significant at p < 0.00006 and for study 2 at p < 0.0001 (Bonferroni-corrected significance level, respectively). M = mean, SD = standard deviation; Min = scale minimum, Max = scale maximum; N = 633-636 (Study 1); N = 235 (Study 2). Means were calculated for manifest sum scores of the respective scale.
