Popis: TTS2 of 20dB was produced in a group of subjects using a 1000 Hz pure tone. All TTS and related measurements were made at 1500 Hz. The recovery of TTS, and of TLS or 'temporary loudness shift' (measured against a reference tone at 20db, 40dB and 60dB SL in the opposite ear), as well as N1-P2 amplitude of the Vertex potential, were plotted. There was an orderly recovery of both TLS and TTS although the rate of recovery of the latter was noticeably more rapid. Recovery of N1-P2 amplitude was much less orderly, although it did recover in much the same way. When the amplitudes were measured at 40dB SL the recovery was more orderly and followed the course of TTS more closely. It was concluded that any relation between N1-P2 amplitude and growth of loudness was indirect.
