Gender Differences in Olfactory Recognition: A Comparative Study of Odour Stick Tests in High School Students
Keywords:
olfactory perception, odour stick, japanese odours, gender differences, high school students
Abstract
There are two types of olfactory testing methods that can be used for screening in Japan. Both methods test detection and recognition of 12 odors commonly found in Japan. It has also been reported that the detection and recognition abilities of the sense of smell gradually decline with age. It has also been noted that the results of odor tests tend to be poorer in male than in female as they get older, from their 40s onwards. However, odour tests are not often conducted on younger generations. Therefore, this study aimed to compare whether there are gender differences in odour tests in high school students.
