Objectives Published reports suggest that some adverse health impact may be related to noise exposure, and motor vehicle traffic is considered to be the main source of environmental hazard of noise. The aim of this study has been to assess an association between occurrence of sleep and attention disorders with exposure to the noise generated by motor vehicle traffic in the case of a large group of children living in an urban environment. Material and Methods The data was obtained using a cross sectional study design in Bytom (Silesia, Poland) from 2003–2007 for a selected group of 7–14 year olds (N = 5136). The geographic information system was used for assessing the exposure to noise generated by the motor vehicle traffic. The association between occurrences of sleep disturbances or attention disorders and exposure to the traffic noise was examined by means of multivariable logistic regression. Results Sleep disturbances and attention disorders were found to be statistically significantly associated with exposure to the traffic noise. The multivariable logistic regression results suggest that sleep disturbances and attention disorders were more likely to occur in the case of children living in the area with higher traffic density, the odds ratio (OR) = 1.44 (95% confidence interval (CI): 1.05–1.97) and 1.38 (95% CI: 1.03–1.86), respectively. Conclusions The results of the study have confirmed that the exposure to the traffic noise could be a significant risk factor for sleep disturbances and attention disorders among children.

The text is devoted to car nicknames. The author analyzes the material collected using a survey method. A linguistic (onomastic) and cultural analysis has been carried out. The most important question concerns the function of car nicknames. Due to the fact that these names usually do not distinguish objects (in the family there is often only one car), the main function the author points out is the incorporative one.

Příspěvek je věnován přezdívkám automobilů. Autor analyzuje materiál získaný anketní metodou. Podává lingvistickou (onomastickou) a kulturní analýzu. Nejdůležitější otázka se týká funkcí přezdívek automobilů. Vzhledem ke skutečnosti, že tato jména obvykle neslouží k rozlišení jednotlivých objektů (rodina má často jen jedno vozidlo), hlavní funkce, na kterou autor upozorňuje, je funkce inkorporační.
