Estimating intracluster correlation for ordinal data [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Purpose: In this paper we consider the estimation of intracluster correlation for ordinal data. We focus on pure-tone audiometry hearing threshold data, where thresholds are measured in 5 decibel increments. We estimate the intracluster correlation for tests from iPhone-based hearing assessment application as a measure of test/retest reliability ...

High Frequency Audiometry [PDF]
Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 1984 After a brief discussion of the past use of and clinical need for high frequency hearing tests, a new technique is described that uses a special electric transduction mode: a 60-kHz carrier frequency is modulated by the desired audiofrequency. The combined signal is applied to the skin over the mastoids by Mylar-covered electrodes.

Generalized Estimating Equations for Hearing Loss Data with Specified Correlation Structures [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Due to the nature of pure-tone audiometry test, hearing loss data often has a complicated correlation structure. Generalized estimating equation (GEE) is commonly used to investigate the association between exposures and hearing loss, because it is robust to misspecification of the correlation matrix.

Brazilian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology, 2010 Uma das principais dificuldades nos estudos clínicos sobre zumbido reside na falta de consenso sobre os métodos de mensuração. OBJETIVO: Avaliar a correlação entre os limiares audiométricos, pitch matching (PM), minimum masking level (MML), Tinnitus ...
