However, at 1000 Hz. the individual's threshold of 35 dB SPL is higher
than the average normal threshold (i.e., 7.5 dB SPL) by nearly 28
dB. This indicates that I needed to make the 1000 Hz. pure tone louder
by 28 dB before my patient could hear it suggesting that this patient's
hearing differs from the average normal hearing at this frequency
by nearly 30 dB.
