Either sublinear or supralinear responses of dosimeters to γ-ray can be described by a response function derived from statistical Poisson distribution. The characteristic parameters of the function determine linearity, sublinearity and supralinearity in their responses. The experimental data of gamma dose-responses of alanine ESR dosimeters, film dosimeters, LiF(Mg, Cu, P) and LiF(Mg, Ti) thermoluminescence dosimeters are used to test the response function.
