Impact of Acute Versus Chronic Unilateral Hearing Loss on Head Movement in a Novel Binaural Task
Individuals with single‐sided deafness (SSD) may develop adaptive listening strategies with head movement patterns to optimize monaural localization and speech‐in‐noise understanding. Granular understanding of adaptive behaviors may better inform rehabilitation for SSD.
