Teachers are at high risk of voice disorders due to the heavy vocal demand of their profession as well as diverse classroom conditions that can stress the voice. Healthy vocal hygiene practices reduce this risk, but many teachers lack knowledge in these areas or have misconceptions about ways to improve their vocal health. This study aimed to…

Ikuma, Takeshi; McWhorter, Andrew J.; Adkins, Lacey; Kunduk, Melda – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2023
Purpose: Vocal fold asymmetry creates irregular entrainments and modulations in voice, which may lead to rough perceptual quality. The presence of asymmetry can also cause mid-phonation bifurcations where a small change in the phonatory system causes a drastic change in vibration pattern, resulting in transitions in and out of rough voice. This…

Purpose: Our aim was to assess the different voice prostheses (VPs) to identify the most efficient, safest, patient-tailored, longest lifetime, and inexpensive VPs and assess the different factors affecting their quality. Method: In September 2017, 15 databases were searched to include all randomized controlled trials. A new search was done in May…

Pasquale Bottalico; Silvia Murgia; Taylor Mekus; Mary Flaherty – Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools, 2023
Purpose: The purpose of this project is to assess the acoustical conditions in which optimal intelligibility and low listening difficulty can be achieved in real classrooms for elementary students, taking into consideration the effects of dysphonic voice and typical classroom noise. Method: Speech intelligibility tests were performed in six…

Boliek, Carol A.; Halpern, Angela; Hernandez, Keren; Fox, Cynthia M.; Ramig, Lorraine – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: This study examined the effects of an intensive voice treatment Lee Silverman Voice Treatment (LSVT LOUD) on children with Down syndrome (DS) and motor speech disorders. Method: A Phase I, multiple baseline, single-subject design with replication across nine participants with DS was used. Single-word intelligibility, acoustic measures of…

Hackworth, Rhonda S. – Update: Applications of Research in Music Education, 2023
The purpose of this literature review was to identify scholarship pertaining to teachers' vocal health and to discuss implications for music teachers. The review includes studies where researchers have addressed vocal health issues for K-12 teachers of all subjects as well as issues unique to music teachers. Risk factors, measurement, and…

McKenna, Victoria S.; Hylkema, Jennifer A.; Tardif, Monique C.; Stepp, Cara E. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2020
Purpose: This study examined vocal hyperfunction (VH) using voice onset time (VOT). We hypothesized that speakers with VH would produce shorter VOTs, indicating increased laryngeal tension, and more variable VOTs, indicating disordered vocal motor control. Method: We enrolled 32 adult women with VH (aged 20-74 years) and 32 age- and sex-matched…

Purpose: The association between voice alterations, health-related quality of life (HRQL), and chronic respiratory diseases, such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), has previously been reported. The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that HRQL and dysphonia-associated handicap of patients diagnosed with asthma or…

Schölderle, Theresa; Haas, Elisabet; Ziegler, Wolfram – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to describe childhood dysarthria by means of auditory-perceptual analyses covering all speech subsystems. We aimed to identify the most seriously affected auditory-perceptual dimensions in the observed dysarthria profiles and to detect specific markers of childhood dysarthria against the backdrop of typical…

Pierce, Jenny L.; Tanner, Kristine; Merrill, Ray M.; Shnowske, Lauren; Roy, Nelson – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: The aims of this study were: (1) to quantify variability in voice production (as measured acoustically) within and across consecutive days in vocally healthy female speakers; (2) to identify which acoustic measures are sensitive to this variability; and (3) to identify participant characteristics related to such voice variability. Method:…

Patel, Rita R.; Ternström, Sten – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to identify the extent to which various measurements of contacting parameters differ between children and adults during habitual range and overlap vocal frequency/intensity, using voice map-based assessment of noninvasive electroglottography (EGG). Method: EGG voice maps were analyzed from 26 adults (22-45…

Johansson, Kerstin; Seiger, Åke; Forsén, Malin; Holmgren Nilsson, Jeanette; Hartelius, Lena; Schalling, Ellika – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2018
Background: Respiratory muscle impairment following cervical spinal cord injury (CSCI) may lead to reduced voice function, although the individual variation is large. Voice problems in this population may not always receive attention since individuals with CSCI face other, more acute and life-threatening issues that need/receive attention.…

Ma, Estella P.-M.; Tse, Mandy M.-S.; Momenian, Mohammad; Pu, Dai; Chen, Felix F. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: This study aims to investigate the effects of dysphonic voice on speech intelligibility in Cantonese-speaking adults. Method: Speech recordings from three speakers with dysphonia secondary to phonotrauma and three speakers with healthy voices were presented to 30 healthy listeners (15 men and 15 women; M[subscript age] = 22.7 years) under…

Objectives: The purposes of this study were to validate the Acoustic Breathiness Index (ABI) for the Japanese-speaking population and to determine whether it is independent of factors such as sex, age, and perceptual ratings of roughness. Method: First, the concurrent validity of the ABI for perceptual breathiness was evaluated on the…
