An Analysis of the Acoustical Quality of Rooms Using Auditory Perception Tests

청감실험에 의한 실의 음향 특성분석

This paper adopts the psychoacoustical methodology to evaluate the acoustical qualities of rooms and describes some of the results of an attempt to develop such a test. In order to investigate the effect of hall response to subjects, a subjective experiment was performed in artificially simulated sound fields. Pairs of sounds having differences in duration/frequency were presented to a subject and the subject's responses were recorded. The stimuli were varied through an auralization system that simulates three different rooms. It was found that duration/frequency discrimination is influenced by the room conditions and that these discrimination procedures may form the basis for assessment of room acoustics.
