From page 128...
... 128 A long-standing approach to the problem of accounting for variability in judgments of the annoyance of fixed-wing aircraft noise has been to develop new noise metrics. This approach has produced a veritable alphabet soup of noise metrics, but no appreciable improvement in understanding or predictability of annoyance caused by fixed-wing aircraft noise.

... 130 Assessing Community Annoyance of Helicopter Noise the root-mean-square error between observed and predicted percentages of highly annoyed survey respondents (Green and Fidell, 1991; Fidell et al., 2011)
From page 131...
... Systematic Analysis of Nonacoustic Influences on Annoyance 131 accounts for two-thirds of the variance in the association of observed and predicted annoyance prevalence rates. C.3 Application of CTL Analysis to Annoyance of Exposure to Helicopter Noise CTL values directly comparable to those calculated for the Fidell et al.
