Description
Summary:Noise is an environmental stressor. Chronic exposure of noise deteriorates the health. Literature revealed an acute gap in auditory and non-auditory health profiling of young (19 to 25 years) motorcyclists. This study examined it through cross-sectional and experimental setups, which consisted of Four Phases of health profiling. Phase I, riders’ noise sensitivity (NS) and Health-related Quality of Life (HRQOL) was determined through survey-based study (n = 301).
