본 연구에서는 사상관련전위인 수반음성변동(CNV)을 이용하여 쾌/불쾌 향의 영향을 평가하고자 하였다. 즉, 건강한 20대 성인을 대상으로 쾌한 향(레몬)과 불쾌한 향(E3) 자극에 따른 CNV의 전기성분 및 후기성분의 변화를 대뇌부위별, 가산횟수별로 비교 분석하였고, 쾌/불쾌 향의 자극 반복에 따른 주관적 평가도 부가하여 검토하였다. 그 결과, 쾌/불쾌 향은 CNV 후기성분의 중심엽 부위에서 10∼15회 가산평균의 경우 정량적으로 구별될 수 있는 가능성을 보였고, 주관적인 평가에서는 반복 자극횟수가 증가함에 따라 쾌/불쾌감이 저하하는 것을 알 수 있었다.

The event-related potentials are difined as the changes in voltage that occur at paticular time before, during and after something that happens in the physical world or some psychological processes. The possibilities of clinical applications of ERP are considered because the endogenous potentials such as P3 and contingent negative variation(CNV) are determined by the psychological significance of the stimulus. The P3 is a positive wave that occurs when a subject detects an informative task-relevant stimulus. The P3 amplitude and latency are affected by the various factors as subjective probabilites, stimulus meaning and information transmission. It is suggested that P3 wave is associated with the decision making, cognitive or perceptual closure, memory updating and transfer of information to consciousness etc. Although the intracerebral origin of the P3 wave is not known, the P3 may have multiple intracerebral generators. The CNV is a slow potential shift occuring during the foreperiod, between warning and response signals, in a reaction time experiment. It is related to expectancy, preparation etc. The abnormal findings of P3 wave and CNV in various psychiatric disorders are also discussed.

Among many kinds of odors, some are known to have effects of sedation or stimulation on brain activity. In this study, brain activity levels affected by four kinds of fragrance0lemon, lavender, jasmine, and rose-were tested using EEG recording. In the first experiment, the quality of alpha wave was examined under controlled rest condition. In the second experiment, the event-related potential (ERP) and contingent negative variation (CNV) were investigated during a simple reaction tasks (SRT) against auditory signal. EEG data obtained for the rest condition were analyzed suing "3-Dimensional Viewer)" which was developed by ourselves to show the chaotic attractor of the signal. Power spectrum were also calculated using FET. EEG data obtained during the SRT were analyzed by comparing CNV amplitudes about each odor condition. Results confirmed the sedative effect of the lemon and the lavender, and the stimulative effect of the jasmine and the rose.
