Alighieri, Cassandra; Bettens, Kim; Bruneel, Laura; D'haeseleer, Evelien; Van Gaever, Ellen; Van Lierde, Kristiane – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: This study compared the inter- and intrarater reliability of the percentage of consonants correct (PCC) metrics and the probe scoring system between an experienced and a less experienced rater and between two experienced raters. In addition, these outcome measures' ability to reflect changes following speech intervention was measured.…

Meerschman, Iris; Van Lierde, Kristiane; Peeters, Karen; Meersman, Eline; Claeys, Sofie; D'haeseleer, Evelien – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2017
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the short-term effect of 2 semi-occluded vocal tract training programs, "resonant voice training using nasal consonants" versus "straw phonation," on the vocal quality of vocally healthy future occupational voice users. Method: A multigroup pretest--posttest randomized control…
