Abstract

10 male and 10 female undergraduates were asked to estimate 5-, 10-, 15-, and 30-sec. intervals under five intensities of ambient noise (50, 60, 70, 80, and 90 dB). Interval estimates became shorter as the intensity of noise increased from 50 to 80 dB but became longer at 90 dB. The effects of intensity of noise were most prominant in the two longest intervals. These results are interpreted in terms of CNS arousal theory.

摘要

10名男性和10名女性大学生被要求在五种强度的环境噪声（50、60、70、80和90分贝）下估计5秒、10秒、15秒和30秒的时间间隔。随着噪声强度从50分贝增加到80分贝，时间间隔估计值变短，但在90分贝时变长。噪声强度的影响在两个最长的时间间隔中最为显著。这些结果根据中枢神经系统唤醒理论进行了解释。
