The analysis showed that emotive attributes used to describe the compared noises constitute around 19% of the total volume of verbalisations. Emotional components identified in the perceived quality contain a rich set of features which characterise in details the general impressions from the sounds as well as their similarities and differences. A high correlation between the frequencies of use of emotive attributes and noise preferences was shown. On the basis of quantitative presence of emotive attributes in verbal portraits created for compared noises, the differentiation of noises identified as 'good' and 'bad' was done. Also, subjects having different experience of listening to these noises were shown to have different quantity of emotive attributes. We can also state that in a number of cases an analysis of free verbalisations can give more information than psychophysical data on preferences. In the given study, it could be demonstrated by the fact that the analysis of quantitative presence of emotive evaluations gives a possibility to reveal peculiarities in perception of noise which are specific to people having different experience of listening to it: the drivers of a car producing this noise and the drivers lacking this experience. The most significant results concern the cases when the most negative and the most positive emotive evaluations were given: the drivers having an experience in driving the car which noise was identified as 'bad' give more negative evaluations to it than other drivers. On the contrary, the car having a 'good' noise receives from this driver significantly more positive evaluations than from the other groups of drivers. In addition, the emotive evaluations' analysis shows differences in perception of noises by males and females. The gender differences manifest themselves in a following way: women give more negative emotive evaluations than men to the car identified as 'bad', and more positive emotive evaluations to the car identified as 'good'. However, no significant differences in the frequency of emotive attributes given by people having experience in acoustical evaluation and those ones lacking this experience were revealed. It should be mentioned that significant differences between these groups of subjects were not revealed as well in the previous analysis of preferences.
