As a motorcyclist I believe this is true. When wearing hearing protection inside the helmet I am far less stressed and rider longer than when I do not have them in. Come to think of it, when driving my convertable I get tired of it much faster than when I am in my ubercruiser W124 (or maybe it's the type of road.. LOL). I do find that sound of any type affects my concentration and concentration required energy. Less noise, less energy required to stay on task is how I see it.
