Table 3. False referral rates as a function of baseline age for several f2 frequencies.

False referral rates obtained by subjecting the observed test-retest differences to pass-fail criteria based on the 90% shift reference intervals derived from a meta-analysis of 10 studies in adults (Reavis et al. 2015). Results suggest that shift reference intervals need to be developed specifically for use with children and/or long test-retest intervals.
