Aircraft and road traffic noise and children's cognition and health: a cross-national study

TL;DR: The findings indicate that a chronic environmental stressor-aircraft noise-could impair cognitive development in children, specifically reading comprehension, and schools exposed to high levels of aircraft noise are not healthy educational environments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chronic aircraft noise exposure, stress responses, mental health and cognitive performance in school children.

TL;DR: The results suggest that chronic aircraft noise exposure is associated with impaired reading comprehension and high levels of noise annoyance but not mental health problems in children.
Journal ArticleDOI

Noise and health in the urban environment.

TL;DR: The effects of environmental noise on the non-auditory aspects of health in urban settings are reviewed and chronic aircraft noise exposure impairs reading comprehension and long-term memory and may be associated with increased blood pressure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exposure-effect relations between aircraft and road traffic noise exposure at school and reading comprehension: the RANCH project.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined exposure-effect relations between aircraft and road traffic noise exposure and reading comprehension and found that exposure at home was highly correlated with aircraft noise exposure at school and demonstrated a similar linear association with impaired reading comprehension.
Journal ArticleDOI

Body mass, weight control behaviours, weight perception and emotional well being in a multiethnic sample of early adolescents

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated weight perception, dieting and emotional well-being across the range of body mass index (BMI) in a population-based multiethnic sample of early adolescents.
