Current tests of hearing fail to diagnose pathologies in ~10% of patients seeking help for hearing difficulties. Neural ensemble responses to perceptually relevant cues in the amplitude envelope, termed envelope following responses (EFR), hold promise as an objective diagnostic tool to probe these 'hidden' hearing difficulties. But clinical translation is impeded by current measurement approaches involving static amplitude modulated (AM) tones, which are time-consuming and lack optimal spectrotemporal resolution.

Auditory neural coding of speech-relevant temporal cues can be noninvasively probed using envelope following responses (EFRs), neural ensemble responses phase-locked to the stimulus amplitude envelope. EFRs emphasize different neural generators, such as the auditory brainstem or auditory cortex, by altering the temporal modulation rate of the stimulus. EFRs can be an important diagnostic tool to assess auditory neural coding deficits that go beyond traditional audiometric estimations.

Hearing thresholds form the gold standard assessment in Audiology clinics. However, ~ 10% of adult patients seeking audiological care for self-perceived hearing deficits have thresholds that are normal. Currently, a diagnostic assessment for auditory processing disorder (APD) remains one of the few viable avenues of further care for this patient population, yet there are no standard guidelines for referrals.
