✦ Synopsis
A study of community reactions to noise in the vicinity of a Norwegian airport has been conducted in connection with two large military exercises. An extensive questionnaire was presented to a random sample of residents before, during and after each exercise. More than 3400 interviews were completed. The group of respondents also contained a panel of about 200 people who were given identical questions in each survey series. This paper presents the results with an emphasis on the data from this panel. The results indicate that the general reaction to aircraft noise is not altered by short periods with increased noise exposure.
