Researchers conducted a cross-sectional survey examining the relationship between frequent single-use plastic consumption and cognitive function. The study found that frequent single-use plastic consumption was linked to poorer cognitive outcomes, while awareness of microplastic risks and risk perception did not directly affect cognition. The findings suggest that educational strategies may help enhance public awareness and reduce plastic exposure.
