frequency following response

The frequency following response (FFR) is a brainwave measurement that captures how well your brain’s electrical activity matches the sound signals it hears. When you listen to certain sounds, like speech or music, your brain’s neural circuits tend to sync up with the rhythm and pitch of those sounds. The FFR records this synchronization, providing insights into how your auditory system processes complex sounds. It’s useful in studying hearing, language skills, and auditory disorders, offering a window into the brain’s ability to follow and interpret sound patterns.
