| Noise is one of the most important environmental
pollutants that endanger human health. The aim of
the present study was to assess the effects, habituation to
noise, and possible improvement of traffic noise subjectively.
Data were collected using questionnaires from 300
citizens in Tabriz, Iran. Subjective noise level was relatively
high and had considerable influence on citizens’
satisfaction, performance, and health. Satisfaction with
traffic noise was lower in males and decreased with
increasing age. Males were also more likely to complain
about the interference of traffic noise with their performance
than females. Habituation to noise was relatively
low and was not associated with living area and demographic
characteristics. The use of double-glazed windows
and more investment and use of public transport were rated
as the most appropriate solutions for improving traffic
noise. The findings highlight the role of qualitative studies
for reducing the negative health consequences of exposure
to traffic noise. |
