Abstract

Abstract This study evaluated the role of Nigerian print media in bringing the health hazards of noise pollution to public awareness through the presentation of stories. The Guardian, Punch, and Vanguard newspapers were content analyzed to ascertain the framing, volume, prominence, frequency, and genre of noise pollution articles published from June 2020 to July 2021. Seven (n = 7) articles on noise pollution were published within the period studied. Solution and effect frames were dominant as five articles mentioned the health effects of noise pollution. The results were inadequate to create public awareness of the health hazards of noise by Nigerian print media.

摘要:本研究评估了尼日利亚平面媒体在通过故事的呈现使公众意识到噪音污染的健康危害方面的作用。对《卫报》、《Punch》和《先锋》等报纸进行了内容分析，以确定2020年6月至2021年7月期间发表的噪音污染文章的框架、数量、突出程度、频率和类型。在研究期间，有7篇(n = 7)关于噪音污染的文章发表。解决方案和效果框架占主导地位，有五篇文章提到了噪声污染对健康的影响。这些结果不足以使公众认识到尼日利亚印刷媒体噪音对健康的危害。
