Residents perception of road traffic noise loudness in relation to
the measured noise indices close to their dwellings was studied.
Percentile distributions of five loudness categories as a function
of the Day–Night noise index LDN were obtained. Hearing sensitivity
was considered as a factor in loudness perception. In addition, the
prevalence of people’s perception of traffic noise in the “Extremely
Loud” loudness category was compared with percentage of people stating
that they were “Highly Annoyed” by noise. It is concluded that hearing
sensitivity for noise is one of the variables that explains the loudness
classification difference in different LDN index ranges and that
the percentages of people “Highly Annoyed” by noise are slightly
higher than the percentages obtained in the “Extremely Loud” category
of loudness perception.
