Abstract
This paper describes a continuing research program on traffic noise annoyance that is being conducted by the Societal Analysis Department at the General Motors Research Laboratories. The work involves a combination of laboratory, field and computer modeling studies. Results are intended to provide a better fundamental understanding of noise-induced annoyance. Potential applications include the evaluation of various vehicle noise reduction programs.
