Abstract
The soundscape approach aims to design pleasant acoustic environments. It is a comprehensive assessment that uses field questionnaires, interviews, and measurements. However, field studies do not always allow for a full evaluation. Virtual environments have great potential for experiencing various urban scenarios and carrying out soundscape studies. In this study, it is aimed at making an evaluation of the transfer of the soundscape questionnaire to the virtual environment. The ISO/TS 12913-2 standard has questions and definitions for the preparation and evaluation of surveys in soundscape studies. This study evaluated the affective quality attribute pairs defined by this standard in virtual and real environments. Within the scope of the study, binaural audio and HD video recordings and a questionnaire were carried out in two different urban areas. After that, the videos and sound recordings taken were re-prepared for the Multimodal Measurement Laboratory (MMM) at the Dresden University of Technology. The field questionnaire conducted in the two urban areas was repeated with participant groups in the laboratory environment. As a result of the study, it was seen that there was no significant difference in the participants' evaluations of affective quality and that the practices in the fields and in the MMM were consistent.
