✦ Synopsis


While the face to face interview technique has dominated research on human subjective reaction to noise, other techniques such as administration of a written questionnaire offer the established advantages of anonymity and cost-efficiency. The present study examines the effects of surveying the reaction to noise of military personnel by the face to face interview versus the written questionnaire administered in groups. The results indicated that the group administered questionnaire resulted in greater reliability of the general reaction scale, and more items being supplied in response to an open-ended question regarding disliked features of the working environment. It is concluded that, under certain circumstances, the advantages of the group administered questionnaire may outweigh the benefits of the face to face interview.
