Abstract(in English) Influence of sound environment during numerical memorizing task is examined by the measures of reaction time (RT) and electroencephalogram (EEG) power spectrum density (PSD). The task consists of memorizing eight 1-digits and then discriminating those from displayed 8-digit. For first experiment, the measures were observed under three conditions: no sound and white noise in two sound pressure levels. As a result, there is significant difference of RT and PSD for θrhythm on the frontal sphere during pause for rehearsal between no sound and two white noise conditions. All PSDs of a,β,θrhythms were significantly suppressed in showing numerals, and significantly increased in the pause for rehearsal than those under the resting condition. Secondly, the measures for music condition were tested in the same experiment. RT and θrhythm's PSD also showed significant difference between no sound and music conditions. These results suggest that sound environment significantly affects reaction time andθrhythm's PSD in the pause for rehearsal of memorizing numerals.
