AR=Articulation rate, SR=Speech rate, PASS=PASS Fluency subscore. Sensitivity = True Positive (TP)/(TP +False Negative (FN)), Specificity = True Negative (TN)/(TN + False Positive (FP)), Accuracy = (TN + TP)/(TN+TP+FN+FP). AUC= Area under the curve, cvAUC= Cross-validated AUC. pAUCuncorrected =absolute AUC for FPR [0, 0.2]. pAUCcorrected =scaled AUC for FPR [0.0.2] using McClish correction (Maindonald & Braun, 2012)
