Abstract Method for restricting the output level in hearing apparatuses 5 Psychoacoustic boundary conditions are to be better taken into account in the amplification of input signals of a hear ing apparatus. To this end, a method is defined for amplifying an input signal in a hearing apparatus by predetermining each channel-specific compression characteristic curve (12) in a 0 number of spectrally-separated processing channels of the hearing apparatus, which defines a relationship between an in put level (LE) and an output level (LA) in the respective pro cessing channel of the hearing apparatus, and amplifying a re spective input signal portion of the hearing apparatus in each 5 processing channel as a function of a channel-specific operat ing compression characteristic curve (10). A channel-specific input level threshold (Ls) is predefined here for each pro cessing channel. Finally, the respective channel-specific op erating compression characteristic curve (10) is then defined 0 according to the predetermined channel-specific compression characteristic curve (12) below the channel-specific input level threshold (Ls) and the respective curve of the channel specific operating compression characteristic curve (10) is defined with a compression ratio of greater than 8 above the 5 channel-specific input level threshold (Ls).
