If you want to test for audibility of sound above 20kHz. then you use test signals ONLY above 20kHz.At best the study might prove that human hearing does not have a "brick wall filter" at 20kHz. But we already knew this.
If someone here wants to use a study to prove super tweeters are good components (for people who visit here), then he should cite a study using supertweeters playing ordinary Western music, not some bizarre "music" that contains an unusual amount of high frequencies, and then using brain measurements as a proxy for audibility.
