Effects of Aviation Noise on Awakenings from Sleep

FICAN recommends the adoption of a new dose-response curve for predicting awakening, based on the field data described in this paper and supporting references. The Committee takes the conservative position that, because the adopted curve represents the upper limit of the data presented, it should be interpreted as predicting the "maximum percent of the exposed population expected to be behaviorally awakened", or the "maximum % awakened".
