Sound exposure by personal stereo, field study of young people in Denmark

Research output: Contribution to book/anthology/report/conference proceedingArticle in proceedingResearch

Abstract

A number of large scale studies suggest that the exposure level used with personal stereo systems should raise concern. It has been demonstrated that 1) high levels can be produced, 2) high levels are used, especially in situations with high background noise, 3) exposure levels are comparables with that of industrial noise exposure. In the present study, measurements of the everyday exposure levels will be measured
according to principles of ISO 11904-2:2004 for students at various school levels. The measurements will be accompanied with questionnaire detailing the individual habits of use, and with assessment of hearing levels and OAE.
