Abstract:In this study, autonomic nervous system responses including heart rate variability (HRV) and galvanic skin response (GSR) were observed to examine the masking effect of peppermint fragrance stimulus on car horn sound stimulus in a graphic driving simulator. When the pre-experiment and post-experiment measurements for GSR were compared in car horn sound stimulus experiment (1) (p<0.01), experiment (2) (p<0.05), and experiment (3) (p<0.01), driving experiment (2) (p<0.01) and experiment (3) (p<0.01), and pepperm… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
