ABSTRACT:
In an apparatus and method for controlling a damping force characteristic of a vehicular shock absorber, a vertical sprung mass velocity signal V.sub.n is determined on the basis of a vertical G sensor output signal as a control signal. A control gain when a control unit changes a damping force characteristic of either an extension stroke side or a compression stroke side of a piston member of the shock absorber according to the control signal is increased as a moving average of peak values of the vertical sprung mass velocity signal V.sub.n is reduced.
