Predictable noise is somewhat easier to live with than sudden, unexpected noise. ANSWERS: 1. FALSE. Research by anthropologist Dr. Les'ie Brownrigg of Northwestern University indicates that the kind of space we need around us is a cultural preference not an economic one.

People tend to want the space they had as a child. They may buy an immense house for a status symbol, but if, growing up, they slept in one small room with many brothers and sisters, the chances are, they will tend to cluster in a small space even though in a house. 2 TRUE In all-male groups men oecome more COLOR TV month? for the approximate payment of a new TV, your child could attend choice is yours.

A high concentation of people in a small area (of land) seems to have little negative side effect; but lack of space in a home is associated with crime and mental illness. 4.

According to Dr. Leslie Brownrigg. changing psychological space needs is nearly impossible, and even if person recognizes his needs, he finds it hard to change. 6. FALSE.

David Glass, a sudden, unanticipated noise is especially irritating and can affect the level of performance of even the simplest tasks.
