Frequency theory explains processing of sounds of 20-4,000 Hz. Conductive Arguments and. Counterconsiderations. Chapter 12. Conductive arguments were defined and developed by philosophy Carl Wellman. . In order to understand conductive arguments, it is useful to think back to the convergent support patters defined in chapter two like figure 2.12 to the right. Included we also have figure 12.1 to the right where there are more convergent reasons to the same conclusion.. Evolution . of Clinical Psychology.

Rinne test. . In this test air conduction of the ear is compared with its bone conduction. A vibrating tuning fork is placed on the patient’s mastoid and when he stops hearing, it is brought beside the meatus. If he still hears, AC is more than BC. Alternatively, the patient is asked to compare the loudness of sound heard through air and bone conduction. Rinne test is called positive when AC is longer or louder than BC. It is seen in normal persons or those having sensorineural deafness. A negative Rinne (BC > AC) is seen in conductive deafness. A negative Rinne indicates a minimum air-bone gap of 15–20 .
