Similar to the trends in the any-error data, sensible non-target errors were more common among listeners with CIs than those with TH ( z = 2.3, p = 0.02), and these errors were mitigated by seeing the talker’s mouth for listeners with CIs but not those with TH (marginally significant interaction between mouth visibility and hearing group; z = 2.0, p = 0.05).

There were two notable types of effects: an overall trend of the CI group looking more at the mouth compared with the TH group (replicating previous studies), and differences in gaze behavior at specific points during the trial in response to stimulus demands.
