Abstract

Concerts and bars with amplified music expose people to sound intensities far in excess of workplace limits. Such exposure may produce a variety of effects beside potential hearing loss. A survey of 185 college students revealed tinnitus, headaches, and dizziness as occasional aftereffects. Studies are being conducted to determine whether balance-related aftereffects pose a threat to safe driving.
