Abstract
Di.culties in comparing the results from studies have interfered with
accumulating knowledge about communities| responses to noise. Gaps
in the information presented in publications have been especially
serious problems for combined social and acoustical surveys of residents|
responses to environmental noise. In an attempt to alleviate this
problem an ICBEN team. Community Response to Noise, recommends the
guidelines in this article for reporting on combined social:acoustical
surveys of residents, reactions to noise. A table lists guidelines
for information on 18 topics for publications of three levels of
detail. The guidelines were developed in three years of correspondence
with acoustical and social science experts from 12 countries. These
guidlines are supported by the 11 members of the ICBEN noise team
and the 26 experts listed in the article.
