TABLE I.

Acceptance rates and evaluation parameters of I/O functions for both stimulus paradigms with and without high-level correction (HLC; Sec. II E). N: Number of I/O functions with at least three DPOAEs satisfying the 10-dB SNR criterion (Sec. II D). N_a: Number of EDPTs complying with the regression-fit acceptance criteria that $r_{I/O}^2$ ≥ 0.8, ${\sigma }_{\mathit{E}\mathit{D}\mathit{P}\mathit{T}}$ ≤ 10 dB, $s_{I/O}$ ≥ 0.2 $\mu Pa/dB\hspace{0.17em}SPL$, and $\hspace{0.17em}EDPT\hspace{0.17em}$ ≥ −10 dB SPL (Sec. II E). Acceptance rates relative to N are given in parentheses. ${\tilde{r}}_{I/O}^2$, ${\tilde{s}}_{I/O}$, and ${\tilde{\sigma }}_{\mathit{E}\mathit{D}\mathit{P}\mathit{T}}$: Median values for the pooled evaluation parameters with interquartile range given in square brackets.
