The auditory frequency-following response (FFR) is a non-invasive index of the fidelity of
sound encoding in the brain, and is used to study the integrity, plasticity, and behavioral …

The frequency-following response, or FFR, is a neurophysiological response to sound that
precisely reflects the ongoing dynamics of sound. It can be used to study the integrity and …

The frequency-following response (FFR) to periodic complex sounds has gained recent
interest in auditory cognitive neuroscience as it captures with great fidelity the tracking …

Fetal hearing experiences shape the linguistic and musical preferences of neonates. From
the very first moment after birth, newborns prefer their native language, recognize their …

Highlights•Auditory midbrain and thalamus support predictive coding and speech
encoding.•Corticofugal projections are involved, but their specific roles need to be …

Objectives: The present envelope frequency-following response (FFR ENV) study aimed at
characterizing the neural encoding of the fundamental frequency of speech sounds in …

The frequency-following response (FFR) to periodic complex sounds is a noninvasive scalp-
recorded auditory evoked potential that reflects synchronous phase-locked neural activity to …

Detailed neural encoding of voice pitch and formant structure plays a crucial role in speech
perception, and is of key importance for an appropriate acquisition of the phonetic repertoire …

Infants born after fetal growth restriction (FGR)—an obstetric condition defined as the failure
to achieve the genetic growth potential—are prone to neurodevelopmental delays, with …

Purpose: The aim of the present study is to characterize the maturational changes during the
first 6 months of life in the neural encoding of two speech sound features relevant for early …
