The present invention carries out highly accurate assay of a sample, even under high-dose radiation, by analyzing an energy spectrum obtained by a radiation detector. In this radiation analysis method, first, the spectrum (actual spectrum) of a sample is measured by a radiation detector (sample measurement step: S1). In this step, two or more types of scintillators having different sizes are used and two or more types of shielding substances having different thicknesses are used to obtain an actual spectrum for each condition (setting condition). Next, measurement similar to that described above is carried out with respect to a reference radiation source (reference radiation source measurement step: S2). Next, a background nuclide-derived component, which is a component derived from a background nuclide (137Cs) in the actual spectrum, is inferred from the reference spectrum obtained in the reference radiation source measurement step (S2) (background nuclide-derived component inference step: S3). ・・・
