Interrelationship Between Physiological and Psychological Wellness During Lockdown with Reduced Noise Levels: A Conceptual Perspective

The article is an attempt to delve into the complex interplay between physical and psychological wellness, for pre, during and post-pandemic span, concentrating on the influence of noise levels. This conceptual investigation aims to categorise the documented studies into different sections and explicate their comparison pertaining to the dimensions and outcomes of the studies. A conceptual framework that aligns with the dimensions has been structured, in reference to the prior studies, and has been validated in aggregate. The path model substantiates how exposure to noise has positive, as well as, negative impacts on physiological and mental health, further, resulting in affirmative or damaging results on human wellness and productivity. In addition, the paper is a contribution to the theoretical domain which endeavours to identify the research voids and suggests new arenas for future research. The outcomes will facilitate the health care policymakers for formulating policies for promoting health, besides, the academic researchers to investigate, globally.
