Figures & data
Figure 1 Schematic representation of the eight scenarios that described hypothetical candidates with one ‘scoring’ ear and one ‘non-scoring’ ear. The duration of deafness of the non-scoring ear was varied across the scenarios and was described as either having been aided continuously or unaided. The shaded ear in each scenario represents the ‘unilateral’ choice; that is, the choice that was likely to maximize benefit from use of the implant alone based an actuarial model of outcomes in profoundly deaf UK candidates (CitationUKCISG 2004).
Figure 2 The proportion of respondents who chose the ear that was likely to maximize benefit from the implant alone (‘unilateral’ choice) based an actuarial model of outcomes in profoundly deaf UK candidates (CitationUKCISG 2004). Proportions are shown separately for the four unaided scenarios (open symbols) and the four aided scenarios (shaded symbols). Error bars plot 95% confidence intervals for the proportions.
