Table 2.

Proportion of highly annoyed and annoyed according to noise exposure, noise sensitivity, and a complex of noise sensitivity and exposure.

Variables	Highly Annoyed	Annoyed
Low NS a (n = 1028)	56 (5.4) *	185 (18.0) *
High NS (n = 808)	156 (19.3)	394 (48.8)
Low NE b (n = 887)	80 (9.0) †	230 (25.9) *
High NE (n = 949)	132 (13.9)	349 (36.8)
Low NS + low NE (n = 501)	21 (4.2) *	69 (13.8) *
Low NS + high NE (n = 527)	35 (6.6)	116 (22.0)
High NS + low NE (n = 386)	59 (15.3)	161 (41.7)
High NS + high NE (n = 422)	97 (23.0)	233 (55.2)

Unit: number (percentage); ^a NS, noise sensitivity; ^b NE, noise exposure; * p < 0.001; ^† p = 0.001.
