title: The applicability of the modified bivariate plotting procedure to subjects with functional hearing loss.
abstract: The applicability of the modified bivariate plotting procedure proposed by Silman, Silverman, Showers, and Gelfand, 1984, was evaluated on a group of functional hearing-loss subjects under age 44 years. The false-positive rate was 17% and the false-negative rate was 0% for both significant and mild or high frequency sensorineural hearing loss.
