difference was apparentp = .080
With a main effect of groups ( F (3,50) = 9.685, p < .0001; η 2 = 0.91), post hoc comparisons using Dunnett’s T3 procedure showed that although no VSA difference was apparent between the SNHL and NH groups ( F (1, 31) = 6.172, p = .080), both the COND and MIX groups exhibited significantly more compressed VSAs than the NH group did (NH vs COND: F (1, 35) = 20.736, p = .002; NH vs MIX: F (1, 34) = 13.965, p = .010).
