Abstract
Two-hundred and eighty four inhabitants living along the roads, its width is S to 6 meters and dump truck traffic is about four thousands per day, were interviewed in 1981 to get any information on their subjective complaints and social responses to the traffic disturbances. The results were as follows; Multiple and violent sufferings such as noise, vibration, dust, exhaust, sprash, and traffic accident were complained. The inhabitants who were extremely suffered from all these items were one third of them. On the other hand, the man who were remonstrated these sufferings against governments and enterprisers were thirty-seven percents . The results of factor analysis with thirty-nine variables to realize their types of social reactions was as follows; first factor (contribution ratio was forty point eight percents) was the type who were suffered heavily but actively responsed . Second factor was that they were lived in very dusty environments but not responsed because the member of a family was concerned with enterprisers. Third was heavily suffered from noise and vibration but not responsed because they were also trading. Thus there were many types of responses, but they were cancelled each other in the small community. Therefore the state of affairs was not changed for these twenty years . So it was suggested that social reaction of each inhabitant were closely connected with the dynamics of his small community.
