A Comparison of the Speech Acceptability of Good and Excellent Esophageal and Tracheoesophageal Speakers.
Trudeau, Michael D.
Journal of Communication Disorders, v20 n1 p41-49 Feb 1987
Twenty-five adult (mean age 58) speakers who were either esophageal or tracheoesophageal speakers were grouped according to gender, voice type, and speaking proficiency. Naive listener evaluation found that speaker proficiency but not voice type had a significant effect on judgment of acceptability, suggesting that postlaryngectomy speech is quite acceptable.
