All rights reserved.In Indonesia, the categorisation of the hospital ward is determined based on the number of beds. Third class hospital ward (the lowest class) is the ward which consists of more than four beds inside the room. This type of ward is typical in a developing country and might have different acoustic problems compared to the standard ward. This study aims to understand the soundscape dimension in a third-class hospital ward. Two experiments were conducted: the development of semantic scales and the identification of soundscape dimensions. The semantic scales were developed by asking the patient about the feeling in the ward. Most of the terms used to describe the environment are negative terms such as annoying, boring, scary, upset, and uncomfortable. Interestingly, the perception ratings indicate that the patients feel positive about the sound environment. Principal component analysis is used to analyse the rating resulting in five soundscape dimensions. The dimensions are Privacy, Disturbance, Dynamic, Fear, and Satisfaction. These dimensions indicate the important aspect which needs to be understood in increasing the quality of third-class hospital ward.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Soundscape dimensions,Third-class hospital ward[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.18154/RWTH-CONV-239073[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
