Auditory steady-state responses (ASSR) are expected to be useful for the objective, frequency-specific assessment of hearing thresholds in small children. To detect ASSR close to the hearing threshold, a powerful statistical test has to be applied. At present, so-called one-sample tests are used. These tests only evaluate the phase, or the phase and amplitude, of the first harmonic, that is, the fundamental frequency. It is shown that higher harmonics with significant amplitudes are also contained in the ASSR spectrum. For this reason, statistical tests that only consider the first harmonic ignore a significant portion of the available information. The use of a q-sample test, which, in addition to the fundamental frequency, also includes higher harmonics in the detection leads to a better detection performance. The evaluation of test performance uses both detection rate and detection time.
