128 Citations1983Richard S. Tyler, David Conrad-Armes
A meaningful measure of tinnitus loudness that considers loudness recruitment is determined and formulae based on abnormal loudness functions and uncomfortable loudness levels are presented that convert equal-loudness matches in dB sensation level (SL) into loudness in sones.
