Abstract
1754 new students at Syracuse U. were tested in Sept. 1951. 127 individuals who failed the group test were matched against a random sample from those passing the group test. Individual pure tone tests were administered to both groups. Results establish the efficiency of the Massachusetts group pure tone test as applied in the Syracuse U. testing program. The 8000-c.p.s. signal tone is a better indication of hearing at 4000 c.p.s. than 2000 c.p.s. Of 23 failing both tests at 400 c.p.s., 12 also had losses at 250 c.p.s.Keywords
