Although not about noise pollution, it does bring to mind the question of how well some of these studies might have controlled for the effect of noise pollution, which would likely have an effect on cognition, and correlate with air pollution.
- jagged-chisel 7y agoNot sure how controlling for noise pollution affects studying air pollution - can you elucidate? Still, I don't understand how noise pollution anecdotes are relevant to an article on air pollution.
- gnode 7y agoI think the anecdotal comment was actually meant for a different discussion (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21565841 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21565841).
- jagged-chisel 7y agoI think you're right. But commenter disagrees: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21566256 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21566256 Likely because they didn't actually check the context.
