Word Recognition Score Calculator
Actual clinically administered word-list correct/presented count percentage. List, language, level, presentation/calibration external; not speech reception threshold or etiology.
Description
Word recognition expresses correctly identified words as a proportion of administered words.
Word recognition expresses correctly identified words as a proportion of administered words.1
Word list, presentation level and administration conditions determine the measurement context.
When to use Word Recognition Score Calculator
Use this tool to calculate or review the supplied observations under the stated rules. Establish the assessment or recording protocol, units, instrument version and independently applicable reference or calibration.
How to use Word Recognition Score Calculator and understand its results
- Establish the assessment or recording protocol, units, instrument version and independently applicable reference or calibration.
- Enter independentlyScoredCorrectWordCount, independentlyAdministeredWordCount, using the field meanings and rules below, then run the tool.
- Read result.observedWordRecognitionPercent. Use the units and sign conventions below.
- Correct any reported input issue and run again. Before using a successful result, check the stated units, signs, reference scope and observation coverage.
| Input field | Meaning | Value type | Requirement |
|---|---|---|---|
| independentlyScoredCorrectWordCount | Independently scored correct word count | number | Required |
| independentlyAdministeredWordCount | Independently administered word count | number | Required |
Require integer administered word count 1–10000000 and integer correct count between zero and administered. Divide correct by administered and multiply by 100.
recognitionPercent=100×correctWords/administeredWords Use the matching field units and the exact boundary, ordering and reference rules above.
| Output field | Meaning | Value type |
|---|---|---|
| result | Structured result; its nested fields below contain the actual calculation or selected reference | object |
| result.observedWordRecognitionPercent | Observed Word Recognition Percent | number |
{
"input": {
"independentlyScoredCorrectWordCount": 40,
"independentlyAdministeredWordCount": 50
},
"output": {
"result": {
"observedWordRecognitionPercent": 80
}
}
}Limitations and assumptions
Actual acquisition, assessment protocol, instrument version and calibration determine applicability. The tool does not examine a person, classify images, administer a questionnaire or choose diagnostic cutoffs.
Missing required fields, unknown fields, wrong types and violated rules return input issues. Numeric values and outputs must be finite. Extremely large composite outputs are rejected.
