This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
Researchers are testing a new approach called alpha auditory entrainment — using specially designed sound patterns played through headphones — to help children with Fragile X syndrome or autism better filter out background noise and focus their attention. The study will measure brain activity using EEG (a non-invasive scan that records electrical signals from the brain) to see if this treatment helps normalize how the brain responds to sounds and learns new information.
Children with Fragile X syndrome and autism often struggle with sensory overload and have difficulty learning from patterns in their environment. Current treatments don't fully address these core problems. This study aims to develop a new, non-invasive approach that works from the ground up by helping the brain's natural rhythms work more efficiently.

You will visit the research clinic multiple times for study visits. During visits, researchers will place sensors on your child's head to measure brain activity (EEG), and your child will listen to customized sound patterns through headphones while their brain response is recorded. Some visits will involve listening to different types of sounds and completing simple learning tasks. The study will track how your child's brain activity changes over time and whether the sound treatment helps with sensory processing and learning.
