Title Influence of differently structured noises on some physiological and psychological parameters
Original title Die Beeinflussung einiger physiologischer Funktionen des menschlichen Organismus durch Lärm verschiedener Strukturen [in German]
Bibliographic information 1985, Vol.31, No.4, p.198-201. Illus. 14 ref.
Abstract The reaction of persons to noises of varying structures (the rate of impulses was changed) was studied in terms of heart rate, blood pressure, reaction time, temporary threshold shift (TTS) of hearing and the psychological factor "mood". Besides well-known effects, a special kind of TTS dependent on the structure of noise was found.
