Four acoustic reflex parameters (latency, duration, amplitude, recruitment time) in response to stimuli lasting 1 000 to 50 msec with an initial intensity of 95 dB SPL p.e. were studied in four sets of experiments. In each set of experiments, each halving of the stimulus duration was accompanied by a 3, 4, 5 and 6 dB SPL p.e. increase respectively (exchange rates: 3, 4, 5 and 6 dB SPL p.e.). It was found that latency was dependent on the threshold only and unaffected by either duration and intensity. Amplitude and recruitment time were mainly determined by energy content of the stimulus, whereas duration of contraction was solely dependent on the stimulus duration. These experiments also demonstrate that, with reference to stimuli employed, an increase of 3 dB SPL p.e. each halving of the stimulus duration is unable to maintain unchanged the environmental acoustic energy reaching the inner ear.
