Assessment of the Impact of Changes in Noise Exposure at an Expanding Airport by Means of the Multiple Item Aircraft Noise Annoyance Scale (MIAS)
The Multiple Item Noise Annoyance Scale (MIAS) measures noise annoyance as a multidimensional concept including (1) the experience of an often repeated noise-related disturbance and the behavioural response to it, (2) an emotional/attitudinal response to the sound and its disturbing impact, (3) the perception of control of the noise situation. MIAS consists of seven items including the 5-point ICBEN noise annoyance scale and the sub-dimensions 'noise disturbances' and 'lack of coping capacity', each consisting of three items. Its psychometric properties are investigated for aircraft, road, and railway noise annoyance. In this study, we analyse changes in values of the sub-dimensions of MIAS for aircraft noise annoyance before and after the opening of a new runway and the implementation of a night curfew in communities around Frankfurt Airport. Previous studies have shown evidence of a shift in exposure-response relationships for annoyance in situa-tions of changes in noise exposure (change effect). With the assessment of MIAS and its components, it can be identified whether the change effect is more pronounced in the 'disturbance' component of annoyance or in the lack of capacity to cope with the (new) noise situation. This improves the understanding of annoyance in situations of changes in noise exposure.
