Environmental noise measurement of 24 Philadelphia neighborhoods using outdoor remote monitoring via International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) |
Environmental noise will be directly measured using outdoor remote monitoring via International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) Class I portable sound level meter systems, which will allow for collection of comprehensive measurements (i.e. every second) over space and time. Noise will be measured for 30 days each at 24 sites, 8 each in low, medium, and high socioeconomic neighborhoods. |

Primary |
Measures of feasibility |
Feasibility will be measured by the amount of usable remote biometric data collected. |

Primary |
Measures of acceptability |
To measure acceptability, qualitative interviews will be conducted to provide insight on participants' experience with Actigraphy devices and sound devices in the home. |

Secondary |
Sleep duration using an Actigraphy device (adults and pediatric) |
Sleep duration will be measured using an Actigraphy device, which helps assess sleep/wake patterns. The Actigraphy is a small, limb-worn activity monitor, typically placed on the wrist or ankle, designed for documenting physical movement associated with applications in psychological monitoring. The device is intended to monitor limb activity associated with movement during sleep. |

Cardiovascular health (adults only) |
This will be measured using ambulatory blood pressure monitoring three times per day. |

Neurobehavioral measures (pediatric): BRIEF-II |
This will be measured using the Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Functions (BRIEF-II). The BRIEF-II evaluates children and adolescents with developmental and acquired neurological conditions. It consists of 63 questions on a Likert-type format with 0 ("Never"), 1 ("Sometimes"), 2 ("Often") that reflect the frequency to which the child being evaluated performs an indicated behavior. Higher scores indicate greater impairment in executive functioning. |

Neurobehavioral measures (pediatric): CBCL |
The Child Behavioral Checklist (CBCL) is a checklist parents complete to detect emotional and behavioral problems in children and adolescents. It consists of 113 questions, scored on a three-point Likert scale (0=absent, 1= occurs sometimes, 2=occurs often). The time frame for item responses is the past six months. The CBCL is computer scored, in which a trained professional needs to interpret the results. |

Secondary |
Neurobehavioral measures (adults): BRIEF-A |
This will be measured using the Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Functions- Adult Version (BRIEF-A). The BRIEF-A captures views of an adult's executive functions or self-regulation in his or her everyday environment. It includes 75 items within nine nonoverlapping scales: Inhibit, Self-Monitor, Plan/Organize, Shift, Initiate, Task Monitor, Emotional Control, Working Memory, and Organization of Materials. All 75 items are rated in terms of frequency on a 3-point scale: 0 ("Never"), 1 ("Sometimes"), 2 ("Often"). Higher scores indicate greater impairment in executive functioning. |

Secondary |
Neurobehavioral measures (adults): ABCL |
The Adult Behavioral Checklist (ABCL) obtains information regarding an adult's adaptive functioning, problems and substance abuse. It consists of 132 questions on eight empirically based scales: Anxiety/Depression, Withdrawal, Somatic Complaints, Thought Problems, Attention Problems, Aggressive Behaviour, Rule Breaking Behaviour, Obsession-Compulsion. Responses are collected using three levels: "not true", "sometime true" and "often true". |
