Question

What effects might auditory dys-synchrony have on Auditory Steady-State Response test results? How would this vary with different modulation rates, such as 80 Hz and 40 Hz. If possible, please provide references for further reading.

Answer

Our research experience which is on brainstem and cortical lesions appears
to result in an increase in ASSR thresholds or even compromise the
response totally. We have not had direct experience with dys synchrony but
I would bet similar results would evolve.
