Abstract
We carried out a psychological study involving physiological measurements. We used the VAS to research the feeling. The physiological factor measured was the oxy-Hb. It was found that an auditory stimulus of 70[dB] is more uncomfortable than auditory stimulus of 50[dB]. Furthermore, the decrease in oxy-Hb was greater for the auditory stimulus of 70[dB] as compared to the auditory stimulus of 50[dB]. This tendency was found in the center of the forehead (ch22-ch25). There was a difference between the brain activity for the auditory stimulus of 70[dB] and that for the auditory stimulus of 50[dB]. It was also found that the sound level affects the comfort level of humans. It is necessary to obtain additional details on the effects from physiological index to psychological index in a future study.
