Abstract

Vibration and low-frequency tones were scaled for loudness by two numerical estimation procedures and by cross-modality matching. The same ranges of frequencies, from 30 to 250 Hz, were delivered to the ear and to the fingertip. For vibratory loudness, two sets of power functions were obtained, of which the low-frequency set was somewhat steeper. Tonal loudness gave a family of power functions of approximately the same slope at all the frequencies tested. For frequencies above 100 Hz, the growth of loudness is about the same for both modalities. Below this frequency, vibratory loudness grows more rapidly than tonal loudness. © 1975 Psychonomic Society, Inc.
