Slovenian Standardised Noise Reaction Questions for Community Noise Surveys

Abstract

Two standardized annoyance reaction questions for community noise surveys and a corresponding verbal response scale has been translated into the Slovenian language according to ICBEN protocol. The modifiers for the verbal scale were selected through a web-based questionnaire. It is recommended that these questions and the corresponding response scales are included in all future social surveys on noise annoyance in Slovenia, so that new survey results can be readily compared with similar studies conducted elsewhere on the international scene.
