The clinical relationship between acoustic reflexes and loudness perception.

Speech-elicited acoustic reflexes and three measures of subjective loudness perceptions were administered to 10 normal ears and to 20 ears with confirmed sensorineural hearing loss. Most notable was the comparison between loudness discomfort level and the acoustic reflex, revealing a limited relationship. The use of the acoustic reflex as a clinical predictor of loudness discomfort is questioned.
