Summary:
In this paper, we analyzed what kind of psychological effects chaotic vibrations have and how long these effects last. To resolve this issue, we produced chaotic low-frequency electrical therapy device to generate chaotic vibrations. Using the chaotic low-frequency electrical therapy device, we analyzed direct effects of the chaotic vibration on the human body. In the experiments, we generated periodic vibration, fully chaotic vibration and intermittent chaotic vibration. To evaluate the effects of the vibration on the human body, we used one of the subjective methods, a paired-comparison method. We identified a rank-order scale by comparing pairs of the two vibrations. The results indicate that the chaotic vibration is more effective than the periodic vibration.
