Summary

This study looks at how noise from airplanes affects people's sleep. About 400 volunteers living near airports will wear a small device that tracks heart rate and movement for 5 nights, while a recorder captures indoor sounds. They will also fill out morning surveys about their sleep quality. The goal is to create a model that predicts how likely a person is to wake up based on the loudness of an aircraft flyover.
