Low initial sound localization accuracy, but significant improvements after a period of several days. |
Held [66] |
Displacement of auditory representation halfway in the direction of the sound source’s azimuth shift. Localization accuracy improved after a few days. |
Hofman et al. [67]; Carlile and Blackman [68] |
Immediately after mold insertion, localization was severely impaired, but after several days performance improved gradually, reaching pre-training accuracy levels when the molds were removed. |

Improvements in sound localization, especially decreased front-back confusion. |
Honda et al. [72]. |
Decreases in sound localization errors in the horizontal and in the vertical plane, regardless of head movement |
Bălan et al. [73] |
Decreases in sound localization error and front-back confusion rate for broadband and narrowband sounds. |
Parseihian and Katz [74] |
Reduced angular precision errors and front-back confusion |
