If the difficulty level setting unit 164 determines that the difficulty level adjustment is required, the difficulty level setting unit 164 may calculate a specific difficulty level adjustment method and transmit a difficulty level adjustment request signal to the test unit 162 for each job category. The degree-of-difficulty setting unit 164 sets the degree of difficulty, for example, whether or not to adjust the intensity of the noise, whether to adjust the difference ratio between the presented sounds (for example, when the difference between the presented sounds is adjusted from 10% to 5% The difficulty is increased because it is reduced). Also, according to various embodiments, the difficulty level setting unit 164 may perform a difference adjustment operation corresponding to the item of the presented sound to request adjustment of the difficulty level. For example, the difficulty level setting unit 164 may change the difficulty level according to the elements constituting the melody when providing the presented tones including the melody. More specifically, for example, the difficulty level setting unit 164 may change the degree of difficulty by changing the pitch of the melody and the pitch of the melody to provide different pitch sounds, have.

The location-based configuration unit 165 may control the inspection-related setting to be changed based on the location of the user. Specifically, the location-based environment setting unit 165 measures an external noise when the user's location corresponds to a predetermined specific place where the noise level is expected to be high. If the level of external noise is greater than a predetermined value, It is possible to generate a signal requesting to adjust the intensity of the noise down by a predetermined value. The signal requesting to adjust the intensity of the noise may be communicated to the problem type setting unit 161, the job category checking unit 162 or the interest area checking unit 163. After that, the problem type setting unit 161, the job field inspection unit 162, and the interest field inspection unit 163 can adjust the strength of the noisy noise in response to the received signal to present a corresponding problem.

In addition, the location-based environment setting unit 165 controls the time required for the external noise measurement to be increased when the user's location is moving at a speed corresponding to the predetermined range, If the rate of change of the noise intensity is equal to or higher than the predetermined reference value, it is determined that the environment is in an unsuitable environment and a signal for controlling the execution of the auditory inspection is generated. After that, the location-based environment setting unit 165 generates a pseudo auditory check pending signal, and then transmits the pseudo auditory pending signal to the problem type setting unit 161, the job category checking unit 162, or the interest area checking unit 163.
