The period evoked potential: A rapid technique for acquisition of phase-locked responses to continuous pure-tone stimulation
D. J. Parker, Dumisa Matsebula · British Journal of Audiology · 1992
In view of the current audiological need to obtain rapidly recorded and objective threshold information, particularly for frequencies below 1 kHz, we have developed an evoked potential technique based on the frequency following response. The technique involves the acquisition of a single captured epoch of EEG containing phase-locked responses to 1000 cycles of a continuous pure-tone stimulus. The captured epoch is partitioned into segments representing the responses to single cycles of the stimulus. The segments are then averaged to produce the period evoked potential. The process takes less than five seconds.
