To provide an apparatus capable of performing sensory inspection of afterimage feeling by a person in a short time with a stabilized and proper evaluation precision rate.
A test pattern displayer 28 displays an accelerated test pattern in which a moving speed increases at an increasing tempo to progress of time duration, and a slowdown test pattern in which the moving speed decreases at an increasing tempo to progress of time duration, one by one on a liquid crystal television 16 to be evaluated. A judgment operation detector 32 detects a generating operation signal inputted from a judgment input device 20 when an evaluator looks at the accelerated test pattern, and judges that feeling of afterimage is generated and detects a terminating operation signal inputted from the judgment input device 20 when the evaluator looks at the slowdown test pattern and judges the feeling of afterimage is stopped. A judgment speed detector 34 detects a moving speed of an accelerated test pattern as an afterimage feeling generating speed when the generating operation signal is detected, and detects a moving speed of a slowdown test pattern as an afterimage feeling terminating speed when the terminating operation signal is detected. Then, the judgment speed detector 34 calculates an average speed of the afterimage feeling generating speed and the afterimage feeling terminating speed, and detects an afterimage feeling judging speed.
