abstract = "During the first wave of COVID-19, an online questionnaire was conducted to gather the Spanish population's perception of noise from households and its relationship with health effects. This research, which was conducted with 582 participants, examined several sources of noise (general
noise, noise produced by family members inside the home, noise from neighbors, noise from common areas, facilities, and exterior noise) and various self-declared health effects by the participants such as stress, lack of concentration, sleep disturbances, anxiety, or irritability. A descriptive
and statistical analysis was established between variables to observe relational trends for two periods (before and during confinement). The study demonstrates interesting relational trends that allow for both associating different noise sources with potential health effects and contextualizing
them against other causes that remained consistent in both periods.",
