Loudness is the primary psychological correlate of intensity. When
the intensity of a sound increases, loudness increases. However,
there exists no simple one-to-one correspondence between loudness
and intensity; loudness can be changed by modifying the frequency
or the duration of the sound, or by adding background sounds.
Loudness also changes with the listener's cognitive state. Loudness
provides a basic reference for graduate students, consultants,
clinicians, and researchers with a focus on recent discoveries. The
book begins with an overview of the conceptual thinking related to
the study of loudness, addresses issues related to its measurement,
and later discusses the physiological effects of loud sounds,
reaction times and electrophysiological measures that correlate
with loudness. Loudness in the laboratory, loudness of steady-state
sounds and the loudness of time-varying sounds are also covered, as
are hearing loss and models.
