Abstract(in English) The present study examined the auditory localization characteristics of normal human subjects by two experiments. In Experiment 1, accuracy and prediction of auditory localization was measured using the Head Pointing Task in both an ordinary experimental chamber and an anechoic chamber. The results showed that any noise signal except target signals and acoustic echo didn't affect accuracy and prediction in the task or apparatus we used. In Experimental 2, the auditory egocenter was measured using the modified Howard & Templeton method(1966) in the ordinary experimental chamber. The results showed that the auditory egocenter located near the midpoint of the interocular axis, namely the visual egocenter. These results strongly indicate that both the visual and the auditory system represent spatial information using the common spatial coordinate.
