Abstract

Certain examples provide a method of collecting and analyzing complex auditory brainstem response. The example method includes presenting at least one complex auditory stimulus to a subject and acquiring the subject's complex auditory brainstem response. The example method includes averaging complex auditory brainstem responses from the subject in at least one of a time domain and a frequency domain to form a collected response. The example method includes analyzing the collected response using a signal processor to process the collected response to provide a processed output and to adapt the response for comparison to the at least one complex auditory stimulus. The example method includes performing statistical computations on the processed output to generate visual and data feedback for a user.
