The primary objective of the present experiment was to determine if an SOT learning effect is present in individuals with a unilateral vestibular impairment (UVI), and if so, whether it is different from healthy controls. The secondary objective was to determine if the learning effect is dependent on the time frame of repeated SOT assessments.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Method<\/jats:title><jats:p>Eleven individuals diagnosed with a UVI and 11 controls underwent 6 repetitions of the SOT over 2 visits (3 per visit all within 1 week). A second control group underwent 3 SOT repetitions, with each repetition separated by 1 week, to evaluate the time course of the SOT learning effect.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>No statistically significant differences were found between the UVI group and the control group. In addition, the magnitude of the learning effect was found to be similar regardless of the length of time that separated the repetitions.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>If the SOT is to be used as a measure of improvement, the learning effect should be exhausted (which typically occurs following the third administration) prior to the introduction of therapy. Future research should further investigate the results from those with other vestibular pathologies.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1044\/2018_aja-17-0067","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,10,25]],"date-time":"2018-10-25T06:05:27Z","timestamp":1540447527000},"page":"539-546","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Learning Effects and the Sensory Organization Test: Influence of a Unilateral Peripheral Vestibular Impairment"],"prefix":"10.1044","volume":"27","author":[{"given":"Kathleen M.","family":"McNerney","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Speech-Language Pathology, SUNY Buffalo State, NY"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mary Lou","family":"Coad","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Rehabilitation Science, University at Buffalo, NY"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Robert F.","family":"Burkard","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Rehabilitation Science, University at Buffalo, NY"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1310","reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_2_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/000348940511400109"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.apmr.2003.06.006"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1044\/1059-0889(2009\/08-0024)"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3389\/fneur.2013.00029"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1590\/S1808-86942011000300014"},{"issue":"4","key":"e_1_3_2_7_1","first-page":"395","article-title":"Age related changes in postural stability","volume":"51","author":"Borah D.","year":"2007","journal-title":"Indian Journal of Physiology & Pharmacology"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jcgg.2012.04.004"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.otohns.2003.12.020"},{"issue":"4","key":"e_1_3_2_10_1","first-page":"221","article-title":"Effect of age and training schedules on balance improvement exercises using visual biofeedback","volume":"24","author":"Hamman R.","year":"1995","journal-title":"Journal of Otolaryngology"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000058023"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/019459989210600220"},{"issue":"1","key":"e_1_3_2_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"47","DOI":"10.3233\/VES-2004-14105","article-title":"Prevalence of dizziness and vertigo in an urban elderly population","volume":"14","author":"Jonsson R.","year":"2004","journal-title":"Journal of Vestibular Research"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/00016480500388885"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_15_1","volume-title":"Handbook of balance function testing","author":"Nashner L.
