PASS thresholds for each measure defined by the 75th percentile of the cumulative distribution, for patient who rated their condition as PASS positive, by plotting ROC curves and identifying cut-offs that yielded 80% specificity and by plotting ROC curves and identifying cut-offs that yielded the smallest number of false-positives and false-negatives.
