Noise is defined as "unwanted sound". This is basically a psychological definition. Wether a sound is “unwanted” or not depends on the persons exposed to it, so the reaction is different with different individuals and different situations. A person’s behavior is determined by his frame of reference, which is created by his personality, and the society he belongs to.
