882 - A methodological trial for evaluation of compound effects based on inter-subjective relationships between sound and other physical/physiological factors in indoor electrification environment
Ogawa H., Ohta M.
Abstract
In recent years, according to very rapid increase of various kinds of information and communication equipment like personal computers and portable radio transmitters, not only a problem of the technical characteristics of equipment and propagation but also a problem of the influence to the environment including human body has become gradually important. In this study, an evaluation and/or measurement method for compound effect based on the inter-subjective relationships between sound (with other environmental factors) and physiological factors have been proposed, especially through some examples of physical factors (sound and magnetic field) and physiological factors (mean blood pressure and pulsation) surrounding an indoor electrification environment. Finally, with an application to actually measured data, a part of the effectiveness of the proposed method has been also experimentally confirmed.
