Background: Wireless communication devices are an integral part of daily life, leading to unknown radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMF) exposure levels. Dose models quantify RF-EMF exposure from different sources by adding up absorbed energy in different exposure scenarios, but uncertainties persist regarding the input data. The GOLIAT project introduces a novel approach to estimate...

382. The two-tier safety standard regulating human exposure to EMF is a blunt instrument – Exploring a more nuanced risk-management approach in updating the IEEE NATO Military EMF safety standard

IEEE Std. C95.1-2345™-2014 is the NATO-facing voluntary consensus EMF exposure standard published by the International Committee on Electromagnetic Safety (ICES) under the auspices of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Standards Association. This standard is undergoing its decennial revision. Military workplaces can present EMF conditions that are not found in civil...

383. Factors Influencing Anxiety about Radio-Frequency Electromagnetic Fields (RF-EMFs) in Japan: Effects of Information Provision and Individual Attributes

Radio-frequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMFs) are widely used, but some individuals remain anxious about their impacts. This study analyzed factors influencing changes in anxiety about wireless communication devices, using survey data from 1,940 Japanese participants collected before and after an online information intervention in 2023. Participants were grouped by initial anxiety levels...
