Developmental plasticity of spatial hearing following asymmetric hearing loss: context-dependent cue integration and its clinical implications

Under normal hearing conditions, comparisons of the sounds reaching each ear are critical for accurate sound localization. Asymmetric hearing loss should therefore degrade spatial hearing and has become an important experimental tool for probing the plasticity of the auditory system, both during dev...
