Position j = M (M ≥ m) of maximum G-score G M * identifies with position m the sequence segment [ m, M], which is characterized as 'high-scoring' if G M exceeds a threshold score G M * of significant probability.
Even though a threshold score is not defined, a domain score < 50% is usually considered of limited use.
A threshold score of 10 appeared to be sensitive for identifying patients at higher risk of developing PPC's.
GHQ scores were analysed using a threshold score of 3 out of 12 as an indication of current caseness.
Using statistical methods, a threshold score was defined above which the high risk of upper airway obstruction should prompt consideration of an elective tracheostomy.
In fact, even though a threshold score is not defined, a domain score < 50% is usually considered as stated in the "methods" section, of limited use.
In order to facilitate this choice, the calculated score, Qn, must be compared against a threshold score, Qth, which is used as a basis of comparison.
In order to select PSUM performance indicators, a threshold % of 48 was applied to citizens' opinion and a threshold score of 2.85 was applied to stakeholders' appraisal.
The frequencies of current and past depressive episodes, estimated by taking PHQ scores over a threshold score of 15 (out of 27), showed a similar pattern of results.
They used a threshold score of 5 from the data of 143 patients (grouped into extubated at the end of the operation, overnight ventilation via an endotracheal tube, and elective tracheostomy) using Receiver operation characteristic (ROC) curve analysis.
If the PCL-R is used as intended, it is possible for an individual to obtain a threshold score (30) with evidence of antisocial behavior but without any direct evidence of criminality".
