This study is an experimental study to introduce the soundscape design for urban parks. subjective response to soundscape for 4 urban park are carried out using 7 scale S.D. method which are included 25 adjective pairs. In order to recognized the effect environmental sound(bird singing, sweet environmental music, nature sound) for enriching the present sondscape, this study analyse the subject response for soundscape after and before using the environmental sound. The degree of satisfaction for visual atmosphere is higher than for auditory atmosphere of parks, this means that visual clues are much more effective to the environment condition than auditory clues. The effect of using the environmental sound is positive and effective to enrich the soundscape. On providing environmental sounds, it is necessary to consider the charcteristics of urban parks.

Epidermoid cyst in bony wall of external auditory canal (EAC) is a very rare pathologic condition. In addition to its extreme rarity, its positional proximity to temporomandibular joint (TMJ) might lead to clinical misdiagnosis as TMJ disorders, especially when it is accompanied by temporomandibular disorders-like symptoms. In this article, we report a patient with epidermoid cyst in anterior bony wall of EAC, which was misdiagnosed as TMJ disorder because the left TMJ pain aggravated during mastication.

Dysphonia is well known as one of the otolaryngological symptoms of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection. The vocal changes of the COVID-19 condition have been reported in terms of parameters of multi-dimensional voice assessment, including acoustic analysis, auditory-perceptual evaluation, and psychometric assessment. However, there has not been a daily followup study in patients with acute COVID-19 infection. In this study, a 41-year-old male performed daily voice recordings of vowel phonation and passage-reading tasks during the self-quarantine period of one week. Compared to the normal voice status of the prepandemic period, voice abnormalities peaked on day two after the diagnosis of COVID-19 infection and recovered after one week.

본 논문에서는 개발된 잡음제거 기능을 갖춘 시-청각 단서 제공 읽기 훈련 프로그램(이하 프로그램)을 소개한다. 프로그램은 시-청각 단서들을 지닌 훈련용 문장들을 제공한다. 말운동장애인들은 읽기훈련을 위해서 시각단서와 청각단서들을 각각 또는 동시에 사용 가능하다. 훈련 결과의 평가 편의성 제공을 위해서 잡음제거 알고리즘을 개발하였다. 알고리즘은 피험자가 컴퓨터화면에 제공된 문장을 읽을 때 읽는 말소리와 함께 녹음된 잡음과 청각단서 소리를 제거한다. 또한 피험자가 읽기 연습을 시작할 때 최초의 말소리 개시시간을 검출하는 기능을 구현하였다. 말소리의 녹음은 4가지 잡음환경(실내 잡음, 백색 잡음, 자동차 내부잡음, 배블 잡음)에서 성인 6명(남성 3 명, 여성 3명)으로부터 하였다. 잡음제거 전과 후에 대한 조건에서 녹음된 말소리의 실제 시작 시간과 프로그램상에서 찾은 시간과의 오차를 실험하였다. 잡음제거 전과 후에서의 시간오차가 $4.847{\pm}2.4235[ms]$ 향상되었다. 개발된 프로그램은 말운동장애인의 훈련 및 증상 평가에 도움이 될 수 있으리라 사료된다.

제주도 연안 정치망의 여름철 주 어획대상인 잿방어를 실험어로 하여, 음향을 이용한 어군행동 제어, 음향순치 등 바다목장 조성을 위한 어군의 관리, 사육, 어획기술에 이용할 기초자료를 제공할 목적으로 육상수조에서 수중 가청 저주파음과 전기충격을 이용하여 음향 학습 시킨 후, 주파수와 음압을 변화시켜가면서 잿방어의 섬전도를 도출 하여 심박간격의 변화로부터 청각문턱치, 청각임계비를 측정하였다. 자연환경소음에서 잿방어의 청각문턱치는 측정 주파수 80∼800 HZ의 수중 가청음을 모두 인식하였고, 측정 주파수 200∼500 HZ 에서 청각 감도가 양호하였으며, 측정 주파수 300 Hz에서 평균 음압 94.5 dB, 표준편차 4.5 dB로 가장 낮은 청각문턱치를 보였다. 평균 음압을 65 dB, 70 dB, 75 dB의 3단계로 변화시킨 백색잡음 방성으로 측정한 잿방어의 청각임계비는 측정 주파수 80, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 800 HZ에서 각각 평균 음압 45.9, 52.8, 42.5, 36.4, 38.6, 39.4, 44.4 dB이었다. 측정 주파수 300 HZ, 400 HZ 그리고 500 HZ 에서는 백색잡음 중에서 측정음을 식별하는 능력이 다른 측정 주파수에 비하여 우수했다. 잿방어가 주파수 300 HZ의 수중 가청음을 충분히 인식하기 위해서는 최저 100 dB 이상의 음압 강도가 펼요하며 환경 소음이 존재하는 환경에서는 소음 스펙트럼 음압 레벨보다 약 35 dB 이상 크게 방성할 펼요가 있다.

Among many kinds of odors, some are known to have effects of sedation or stimulation on brain activity. In this study, brain activity levels affected by four kinds of fragrance0lemon, lavender, jasmine, and rose-were tested using EEG recording. In the first experiment, the quality of alpha wave was examined under controlled rest condition. In the second experiment, the event-related potential (ERP) and contingent negative variation (CNV) were investigated during a simple reaction tasks (SRT) against auditory signal. EEG data obtained for the rest condition were analyzed suing "3-Dimensional Viewer)" which was developed by ourselves to show the chaotic attractor of the signal. Power spectrum were also calculated using FET. EEG data obtained during the SRT were analyzed by comparing CNV amplitudes about each odor condition. Results confirmed the sedative effect of the lemon and the lavender, and the stimulative effect of the jasmine and the rose.

Two experiments were conducted to support the suggestion that the same information processing was used in both input modalities, visual and auditory modality in Wonil Choi & Kichun Nam(2003)'s paper. The primed lexical decision task was performed and pseudoword prime stimuli were used. The result was that priming effect did not occur in any experimental condition. This result might be interpreted visual facilitative information and phonological inhibitory information cancelled each other.

본 연구는 다차원 영상 시각피로를 정량적으로 평가하기 위해 선택적 주의이론에 근거한 청각자극 실험패러다임을 이용하여 시청 전후의 태스크 퍼포먼스 변화를 비교 평가하고자 하였다. 21명의 대학생들이 약 80분의 모바일 3D 콘텐츠 시청 전후에 청각자극을 이용한 선택적 주의 태스크를 각각 수행하였다. 실험참가자들의 주관피로평가 결과를 본페로니의 알파 수정을 적용한 윌콕슨 부호 순위 검정으로 분석하고 피로군과 비피로군으로 분류하여 태스크 퍼포먼스를 비교 평가하였다. 비피로군의 경우 시청 전후 태스크 퍼포먼스 인덱스에서 유의미한 차이가 나타나지 않았으나, 피로군의 경우 모바일 3D 콘텐츠 시청 후에 타겟에 대한 반응 시간이 유의하게 증가하고 반응 정확도가 유의하게 감소하였다. 작업기억 태스크 정확도의 경우는 두 그룹 다 유의미한 차이를 보이지 않았다.

Background and Objectives: In masking level difference (MLD), the masked detection threshold for a signal is determined as a function of the relative interaural differences between the signal and the masker. Study 1 analyzed the results of school-aged children with good school performance in the MLD test, and study 2 compared their results with those of a group of children with poor academic performance. Subjects and Methods: Study 1 was conducted with 47 school-aged children with good academic performance (GI) and study 2 was carried out with 32 school-aged children with poor academic performance (GII). The inclusion criteria adopted for both studies were hearing thresholds within normal limits in basic audiological evaluation. Study 1 also considered normal performance in the central auditory processing test battery and absence of auditory complaints and/or of attention, language or speech issues. The MLD test was administered with a pure pulsatile tone of 500 Hz, in a binaural mode and intensity of 50 dBSL, using a CD player and audiometer. Results: In study 1, no significant correlation was observed, considering the influence of the variables age and sex in relation to the results obtained in homophase (SoNo), antiphase (SπNo) and MLD threshold conditions. The final mean MLD threshold was 13.66 dB. In study 2, the variables did not influence the test performance either. There was a significant difference between test results in SπNo conditions of the two groups, while no differences were found both in SoNo conditions and the final result of MLD. Conclusions: In study 1, the cut-off criterion of school-aged children in the MLD test was 9.3 dB. The variables (sex and age) did not interfere with the MLD results. In study 2, school performance did not differ in the MLD results. GII group showed inferior results than GI group, only in SπNo condition.
