Human newborns's responses to decreased sound pressure level (SPL) were investigated with a localized head-turning habituation procedure. Recovery to a decrement in volume contradicts a selective receptor adaptation view because a lower intensity stimulus does not engage a separate set of receptor cells. Ninety-six infants (mean age = 41 hr) were presented with the same sound for 2 infant-controlled phases. After criterion orientation and criterion habituation to 1 of 2 stimulus intensities (72 or 78 dB), infants were randomly assigned to test trials at an intensity of 66, 72, or 78 dB; Planned comparisons of percentage of test trials with head turns toward the sound revealed that decreased SPL produced recovery of localized head turning.
