Relationship amongst Noise Sensitivity, Burnout and Psychological Resilience in Community Workers

open access: yesNoise and Health, 2023
Background: The mental health status of community workers shows the characteristics of low job satisfaction, low self-efficacy and psychological resilience, and a high sense of burnout.

Effect of Noise Sensitivity on Mental Health: Mediating Role of Sleep Problems

open access: yesNoise and Health
Objective Noise sensitivity refers to an individual’s general perception toward noise and may be associated with mental health and sleep. However, the effect of noise sensitivity on mental health requires further exploration.

Noise sensitivity and hearing disability

open access: yesNoise and Health, 2011
The aim of this study was to investigate the association of noise sensitivity with self-reported hearing disability and hearing levels, with consideration of the role of self-reported history of noise exposure and use of hearing protectors.

Noise sensitivity and multiple chemical sensitivity scales: Properties in a population based epidemiological study

open access: yesNoise and Health, 2012
Noise sensitivity is considered to be a self-perceived indicator of vulnerability to stressors in general and not noise alone. Multiple chemical sensitivity (MCS) has to some extent been accompanied by noise sensitivity, indicating a moderate ...

The concept of noise sensitivity: implications for noise control.

open access: yesNoise & health, 2003
The term "noise sensitivity" is frequently used in many areas of noise research. However, it can be used to describe several different effects and it can be measured in different ways. In noise surveys, noise sensitivity refers to the fact that individuals differ in the annoyance produced by different sources of noise.

On the noise sensitivity of monotone functions [PDF]

open access: yesRandom Structures & Algorithms, 2002
AbstractIt is known that for all monotone functions f : {0, 1}n → {0, 1}, if x ∈ {0, 1}n is chosen uniformly at random and y is obtained from x by flipping each of the bits of x independently with probability ϵ = n−α, then P[f(x) ≠ f(y)] < cn−α+1/2, for some c > 0.Previously, the best construction of monotone functions satisfying P[fn(x) ≠ fn(y)]

Determination of a cutoff for noise sensitivity: Psychometric evaluation of the Turkish Noise Sensitivity Questionnaire (Tr-NoiSeQ).

open access: yesNoise Health, 2022
Context: There is a need for a clear cutoff to use noise sensitivity (NS) scale as a prediagnostic tool in research and clinical use. Aims: Noise sensitivity questionnaire (NoiSeQ) was adapted into Turkish language (Tr-NoiSeQ ...

Neuroanatomical substrate of noise sensitivity [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2018
Recent functional studies suggest that noise sensitivity, a trait describing attitudes towards noise and predicting noise annoyance, is associated with altered processing in the central auditory system. In the present work, we examined whether noise sensitivity could be related to the structural anatomy of auditory and limbic brain areas. Anatomical MR

Noise sensitivity in continuum percolation [PDF]

open access: yesIsrael Journal of Mathematics, 2014
We prove that the Poisson Boolean model, also known as the Gilbert disc model, is noise sensitive at criticality. This is the first such result for a Continuum Percolation model, and the first for which the critical probability p_c \ne 1/2. Our proof uses a version of the Benjamini-Kalai-Schramm Theorem for biased product measures.

Noise-equivalent sensitivity of photoacoustics [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Optics, 2013
The fundamental limitations of photoacoustic microscopy for detecting optically absorbing molecules are investigated both theoretically and experimentally. We experimentally demonstrate noise-equivalent detection sensitivities of 160,000 methylene blue molecules (270 zeptomol or 2.7×10 −19   mol ) and 86,000 oxygenated hemoglobin molecules (140 ...
