Abstract
Important research by Rosowski et al. [Twenty-Seventh Meeting of the Association for Research in Otolaryngology, 2004, p. 275] has led to a standard practice by the American Society for Testing Materials [West Conshohocken: ASTM International; 2014] to assess normal function of temporal bones used in the development of novel middle ear actuators and sensors. Rosowki et al. [Audiol Neurotol. 2007; 12(4): 265–76] have since suggested that the original criteria are too restrictive and have proposed modified criteria. We show that both the original and modified criteria are inappropriate for assessing individual temporal bones. Moreover, we suggest that both the original and modified Rosowski criteria should be applied with caution when assessing whether mean data from a study are within physiological norms because the multiple comparisons resulting from verification at each frequency will lead to very liberal rejection. The standard practice, however, has led to the collection of more extensive and consistent data. We suggest that it is now opportune to use these data to further modify the Rosowski criteria.
