4 Traffic Noise and Health Traffic noise Annoyance Cardiovascular disease Sleep disturbance

5 Noise annoyance Individual factors (noise sensitivity, attitudes to the source, age, ) Noise at facade Perceived annoyance Activity disturbance (speech, concentration, rest, sleep ) Non-acoustic exposure factors (Visual intrusion, odor, vibration, ) Self-reported noise annoyance Acoustic factors (quiet side, facade reduction, window opening habits, )

Thinking about the last 12 months or so, when you are here at home, how much does noise from. bother, disturb or annoy you? Not at all Slightly Moderately Very Extremely [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ]

27 Flygbullerstörning och attityd till flygtrafik Ej negativ egen flygplats Negativ egen flygplats Ej negativ flygtrafik Negativ flygtrafik Andel flygbullerstörda uteplats Andel flygbullerstörda uteplats >= >=60 Antal flygbullerhändelser 70 db L A max,s low Antal flygbullerhändelser 70 db L A max,s low 4. Vid jämförbar flygbullerexponering är andelen flygbullerstörda markant högre bland personer med en negativ attityd till flygtrafik jämfört med personer med en mer positiv attityd. För båda grupperna ses dock ett tydligt och starkt samband mellan flygbullerexponering och bullerstörning.
