Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Meter is the core of the musical structure. We perceive meter as one strong beat and several weak beats. The intensity of the beats is subjective, and it is unknown how much difference we perceive in intensity. In the present study, we quantified the intensity of the beats. We presented several pairs of long and short tones and two intermediate-duration tones. We manipulated the sound pressure of the latter intermediate tone, and the participants chose which intermediate tone was more intense in the method of constant stimuli. We found a difference in the sound pressure that participants perceived as equal strength depending on whether the former intermediate note was a strong or a weak beat. This difference may reflect the intensity of beats.
