Abstract
The Wood delayed loudness balance method was studied in normal and pathologic ears to determine the characteristics of suprathreshold auditory adaptation in three groups of subjects. No consistent relationship could be established between the amount and direction of the loudness change with the frequency, sound pressure level, or sensation level of the adapting signal. Suprathreshold adaptation, as measured by the Wood method, does not provide sufficient diagnostic information to be useful in a clinical setting.
