Psychoacoustic study on the dependence of the TTS in the high-frequency range on the exposing frequency (150--500 cps).
When exposing a normal-hearing person to a low-frequency tone this results in two dips in the audiogram; the second one is of interest because it is in the range of the PTS. The amplitude of this dip is dependent on the exposing frequency: 200 cps causes significantly more TTS than 350 cps. The origin of this TTS is supposed to be in the cochlea.
