In psychology, voice confrontation, which is related to self-confrontation,[1] is the phenomenon of a person not liking the sound of their own voice.[2][3][4][5] The phenomenon is generally caused by disappointment due to differences between what a person expects their voice to sound like to other people and what they actually hear in recordings.[2][3] These differences arise both in audio quality, including factors such as audio frequency, and in extra-linguistic cues about their personality.[2][3][4]
