Two quite sensible ways of recording audiometric threshold data emerged in the early 1920s. They were advanced by Edmund Prince Fowler, an otologist, and by Harvey Fletcher, a physicist. Either would probably have been better than the present system, and would have preserved scientific tradition relative to the orientation of the ordinates of graphs.
在 20 世纪 20 年代早期,出现了两种相当合理的记录听力阈值数据的方法。它们是由耳鼻喉科专家 Edmund Prince Fowler 和物理学家 Harvey Fletcher 提出的。这两种方法中的任何一种都可能比现在的系统更好,并能保持相对于图表纵坐标方向的科学传统。
