“…The pure tone absolute threshold data suggest that the frequencies of greatest TTS were 4 and 6 kHz, which is in agreement with many previous studies using exposure to broadband noise stimuli (Axelsson and Lindgren, 1978;Jerger and Jerger, 1970;Rupp and Koch, 1969;Ulrich and Pinheiro, 1974). The mean TTS was 10.8 dB, which is less than shown in previous studies for which TTS averaged 15e37 dB (Axelsson and Lindgren, 1978;Drake-Lee, 1992;Jerger and Jerger, 1970;Rupp and Koch, 1969;Tin and Lim, 2000;Ulrich and Pinheiro, 1974).…”

“…Following sound exposure experienced at loud music venues and live music rehearsals, temporary threshold shifts (TTSs) of 15e37 dB have been reported (Axelsson and Lindgren, 1978;Drake-Lee, 1992;Jerger and Jerger, 1970;Rupp and Koch, 1969;Tin and Lim, 2000;Ulrich and Pinheiro, 1974). TTSs of this magnitude are associated with equivalent sound exposure levels (L eq ) in excess of 90 dB A (Axelsson and Lindgren, 1978;Bray et al, 2004;Sadhra et al, 2002;Schmuziger et al, 2007).…”

Exposure to loud sounds results in a mild to profound degree of temporary or permanent hearing loss. Though occupational noise exposure remains the most commonly identified cause of noise-induced hearing loss, potentially hazardous noise can be encountered during recreational activities. Unfortunately not much attention is being given to the increasing trend of prolonged exposure to noisy environment, in the younger generation of Indians. The purpose of our study was to know the knowledge of college students about the harmful effects of loud music, prevailing practices with regard to exposure to recreational music and the subjective effects that this exposure is causing if any. Cross Sectional survey of College Students (n = 940), from randomly selected colleges of Delhi University. Majority of students listened to music using music-enabled phones; earphones were preferred and 56.6 % participants listened to music on a loud volume. Effects experienced due to loud sound were headache (58 %), inability to concentrate (48 %), and ringing sensation in the ear (41.8 %). Only 2.7 % respondents used ear protection device in loud volume settings. Twenty-three percent respondents complained of transient decreased hearing and other effects after exposure to loud music. 83.8 % knew that loud sound has harmful effect on hearing but still only 2.7 % used protection device. The survey indicates that we need to generate more such epidemiological data and follow up studies on the high risk group; so as to be able to convincingly sensitize the Indian young generation to take care of their hearing and the policy makers to have more information and education campaigns for this preventable cause of deafness.

“…Temporary threshold shifts in children and adolescents have been reported after exposure to the noise associated with toy cap guns (Marshall and Brandt, 1974), model airplanes (Bess and Powell, 1972), snowmobiles (Bess and Poynor, 1972) and rock and roll music (Rintelmann et al, 1971;Ulrich and Pinheiro, 1974;Hanson and Fearn, 1975). Hanson (1975) in a study of young adults (age range 18 to 25 years) found statistically significant losses in hearing ability among those who admitted frequent attendance at pop music entertainment.…”
