从家庭视角审视噪声污染的经济影响是环境可持续性研究中的新兴领域。经济学研究涵盖噪声污染的来源、测量、后果以及用于确定其对社会经济福利因果影响的计量方法。随着工业增长和城市发展，主要有四类噪声源。经济学研究采用多种措施或数据来源捕捉噪声变化，其后果广泛。常用三种计量方法确定因果影响，这有助于指导政策资源分配和成本效益分析，从概念和方法上为噪声研究做贡献。未来随着数据可得，应研究噪声污染的环境不公正及欠发达国家的社会经济后果。
英文摘要
Examining the economic impact of noise pollution from a lens of household is a burgeoning field in the study of environmental sustainability. Economics studies cover the source, measure, consequence of noise pollution, as well as the econometric methods used to identify the causal impact of noise pollution on socioeconomic welfare. There are broadly four major noise origins along with the industrial growth and urban development, which are airport, railway, urban traffic, and neighborhood. Four general kinds of measures or data sources are used in economics studies to capture the noise variations, namely, proximity to noise origins, real-time noise monitor records, household surveys, and administrative records on noise complaints. The socioeconomic consequences of noise pollution span from physical or mental health to happiness, violence and suicide, housing market capitalization, and inequality. In economics studies, generally three types of econometric methods are used to identify causal impact of noise pollution on the household's welfare, which are instrumental variable estimation, difference-in-difference estimation, randomized and quasi-natural experiments. The causal impact of noise pollution on household's socioeconomic welfare derived from economics studies can help guide policy efforts in allocating resources for noise elimination and conduct cost-benefit analysis. The economics research contributes to the general noise research from both conceptual and methodological perspectives: It expands the scope of research from sound-poof technology or site layout planning to human welfare, and endeavors to isolate the causal impact of noise pollution from other confounding factors. Future studies are warranted along the lines of environmental injustice of noise pollution and socioeconomic consequences in less developed countries when the data become more available.
