This study was conducted to measure the impact of residence on sensitivity to
noise and altruism. Noise Sensitivity Scale and Altruism Scale were used on 60
students (30 rural and 30 urban). It was found that the rural and urban students
did not vary on noise sensitivity, but varied on altruism. Several factors like
exposure to noise, nature of reaction to noise, etc. were responsible behind this
phenomenon
