Abstract
Sound and emotions have a link that has been widely studied in music. However, when sound propagates through space during a performance, the architectural features of the space impact how sound reflects, causing an alteration in some of the original sound characteristics. Therefore, it is essential to study how the acoustic environment contributes to the emotional impact. For instance, researchers in worship spaces have reported the significance of the acoustic environment in impacting emotions and enhancing the spiritual experience. Nevertheless, further research is required to understand the acoustic parameters that contribute to that effect. In a previous study, the researcher analyzed the emotional response to the acoustic environments of worship spaces using self-report and physiological indicators. This study builds on the earlier results by analyzing the acoustic characteristics of such spaces and their relationship to the emotional impact. Establishing such a link between room acoustics' parameters and emotions provides a guide for designing spaces that enhance the occupant's experience.
