The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Child development and the physical environment. (2006, background): “Children’s incidental memory appears fragile to noise exposure (Heft 1979, Lercher et al. 2003).”
A sound foundation? What we know about the impact of environments on learning and the implications for Building Schools for the Future (2007, background): “, 2001b), deficiencies in pre-reading skills (Maxwell & Evans, 2000) and more general cognitive deficits (Lercher et al., 2003).”
The Impact of School Environments : A literature review Produced for the Design Council (2005, background): “…is that chronic noise exposure impairs cognitive functioning and a number of studies have discovered noise-related reading problems (Haines et al, 2001b; Evans & Maxwell, 1997), deficiencies in pre-reading skills (Maxwell & Evans, 2000) and more general cognitive deficits (Lercher et al, 2003).”
Auditory and non-auditory effects of noise on health (2013, background): “60 Investigators have examined exposure–eﬀ ect links between noise exposure and cognition to identify the exposure level at which noise eﬀ ects begin.”
