The loudness of a continuous 1000-Hz tone at 60 dB SPL was measured in the presence of an intermittent tone in the contralateral ear. Over 70 observers participated in a series of eight experiments. The method of successive magnitude estimation showed that the intermittent tone causes the steady tone to diminish in loudness within 2 or 3 min by 40% to 60%. The amount of this induced loudness adaptation depends weakly upon the presentation rate, frequency, and level of the contralateral tone. Loudness reduction of the steady tone is coupled with loudness enhancement of the intermittent tone in the opposite ear. Induced loudness adaptation was also revealed by interaural and cross-modality matching. Induced loudness adaptation depends strongly on interaural interaction and is probably related to lateralization and interaural funneling of loudness. Adaptation induced by an intermittent tone stands in marked contrast to the near absence of loudness adaptation, except near threshold, when a continuous sound is presented alone.
