摘要：

Binaural loudness balance between electric and acoustic stimulation is obtained in auditory brainstem implant listeners who had substantial acoustic hearing in one ear. The data are well described by a linear relationship between acoustic decibels and electric microamps. Based upon this linear relationship, we propose an exponential model of loudness growth in electric stimulation. The exponential model predicts that the loudness growth function can be determined solely by the threshold and the uncomfortable loudness level in electric stimulation. This prediction is consistent with previous psychophysical data on loudness functions. Implications of this finding for speech processor designs are discussed.
