综述了噪声对健康的影响，特别是对儿童的影响。(1)从干扰日常生活的角度来看，对“噪声”的主观认识是噪声研究中的一个重要问题。关于飞机噪音对学童的影响，虽然没有发现对听力水平的影响，但观察到抱怨“噪音”的情况显著增加。(2)孕妇暴露在飞机噪音中与新生儿体重下降有关。此外，3岁的男孩和女孩的身高被发现显着降低与环境噪音的增加。(3)噪音水平似乎对成人的睡眠有一定的影响，但对儿童的睡眠没有影响。(4)在一组生活在嘈杂地区的儿童中，表现出较差的学习成绩，随着年级的提高，学习成绩似乎越来越差。(5)关于耳机引起的听力损害，尚未达成共识。今后必须继续进行足以影响政策决定的有效研究，并适当控制相关因素。
The effects of noise on health, especially that of children, were reviewed. (1) From the point of view of disturbance of daily living, subjective recognition of "noisiness" is an important issue in relation to the study of noise. Concerning the effects of airplane noise on school children, while no effects on the hearing level were detected, a significant increase in the complaint of "noisiness" was observed. (2) Exposure of pregnant women to airplane noise was found to be associated with a decrease in the body weight of newborn babies. Moreover, the height of 3-year-old boys and girls was found to be significantly decreased in association with increase in the environmental noise. (3) Noise levels that seemed to have some influence on the sleep of adults did not affect the sleep of children. (4) In a group of children living in noisy districts exhibiting poor academic performance, the academic performance seemed to become progressively worse as the school grade advanced. (5) No consensus has been arrived at in regard to headphone-induced hearing impairment. Researches and studies effective enough to influence policy decisions must be continually conducted in the future, with appropriate control for related factors.
