Head movements
head movements
In order to describe changes in head movement after training, we measured number of head rotations, head-rotation extent, head-rotation bias and direction of the first head movements during the sound (see Analysis for a description of these variables). We report here the main findings, but see Supplementary Materials for further details (Table S8).Participants changed their head-related behavior after each of the training. In the post-training session, they increased the number of movements (Pre: 1.90 ± 0.65; Post: 2.06 ± 0.52, Head-rotation bias during the Head-pointing to sounds task, as a function of training (Spatial Training and Non-Spatial training) and Phase (Before training in black and post-training in grey). Error bars represent standard errorsHead movements also changed as a function of hearing asymmetry. Participants with greater hearing asymmetry increased their head-rotation extent after the Spatial compared to Non-Spatial VR training more than participants with less hearing asymmetry (
