ABSTRACT

In this study, to observe the effect of olfactory fragrance stimuli on physiological change due to auditory stimuli by frequency, EEG test and ECG were conducted. As auditory stimuli by frequency, car horn(473Hz), ambulance siren(1,653Hz), and symphony(308Hz) of with about 85dB were presented in the conditions of no fragrance and Lavender fragrance for about 5 minutes. As for analysis method, two-way ANOVA based on olfactory fragrance stimuli and auditory stimuli was implemented. As a result of analysis, when interaction was observed in olfactory fragrance stimuli and auditory stimuli, one-way ANOVA about olfactory stimuli on the auditory stimuli was conducted. As a result of analysis, in α-wave, compared with control condition, Lavender fragrance increased, showing a significant difference(p<0.01) in siren. In LF, compared with control condition, Lavender fragrance increased, showing a significant difference(p<0.01), and compared with control condition and symphony, horn and siren increased, showing a significant difference(p<0.01). In HF, compared with no fragrance, Lavender fragrance increased, showing a significant difference(p<0.01) in control condition, symphony, and siren except for horn. In LF/HF ratio, compared with no fragrance, Lavender fragrance decreased, showing a significant difference(p<0.01) in horn condition, however, compared with no fragrance, it increased, showing a significant difference(p<0.01) in siren condition. In conclusion, it is considered that Lavender fragrance works positively and negatively, depending on the kinds of auditory stimuli.
