Disturbances of loudness perception.

Journal of the American Academy of Audiology, 1998
This article reviews information on some auditory disorders that have in common a disturbance in loudness perception. The perceptual disturbances in these disorders have interchangeably been labeled "hyperacusis," "dysacusis," or "phonophobia." Our question concerns whether the loudness disturbances associated with these auditory disorders are ...

Perception of Pitch, Timbre, and Loudness

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1961
If a narrow bandpass filter is driven by a periodic train of narrow rectangular pulses, the resultant wave train elicits a strong pitch perception which varies monotonically with the pulse repetition rate. This periodic wave train can be used as a pitch reference to match against various stimuli.

Perception of loudness in directional sound fields

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2014
An often utilized assumption in room acoustics is that the room produces a diffuse field, in which sound is uniformly distributed in space and arrives at the listener equally from all directions. This assumption greatly simplifies many calculations, e.g., Sabine's reverberation time (RT).

Voice quality and loudness in affect perception

Speech Prosody 2008, 2008
Different voice qualities tend to vary in terms of their intrinsic loudness. Perceptual experiments have shown that voice quality variation can be strongly associated with the affective colouring of an utterance. The question addressed in this paper concerns the role that the intrinsic loudness variation might play in this voice quality-to-affect ...

Aided Loudness Growth and Satisfaction with Everyday Loudness Perception in Compression Hearing Aid Users

Journal of the American Academy of Audiology, 2007
The primary goal of this study was to examine the relationship between listeners' loudness growth and their satisfaction with loudness when wearing wide-dynamic-range compression (WDRC) hearing aids. An absolute-magnitude-estimate procedure was used to obtain listeners' unaided and aided loudness growth functions in response to a 500 and 2000 Hz ...

[Direct loudness scaling in diagnosis of tinnitus. A contribution to loudness perception in tinnitus].

HNO, 1997
We used free-field audiometry to investigate the loudness perception of unilateral high-frequency tinnitus in 16 "normal-hearing" ears by comparing the results with loudness scaling in 20 normally hearing ears without any tinnitus. Narrow-band noise signals at four different frequencies from 500 to 4000 Hz were employed.

Sound Waves, Acoustical Energy, and the Perception of Loudness

1973
In the preceding chapter we studied simple sound vibrations and their subjective effects, without investigating how they actually reach the ear. We referred to experiments in which the sound source (headphone) was placed very close to the eardrum. In this chapter we shall discuss the process of sound energy propagation from a distant source to the ...

Gender difference on loudness perception and evaluation

INTER-NOISE and NOISE-CON Congress and Conference Proceedings
Factors affecting gender differences in loudness perception and evaluation were examined from three perspectives: verbal criteria, brain perception (ratio scale evaluation), and cultural background. When the verbal criteria such as "soft" and "loud" was used for evaluation of perceived loudness, the gender differences were observed for Japanese ...
