Vocal Dose Measures: Quantifying Accumulated Vibration Exposure in Vocal Fold Tissues
TL;DR: The results showed that large F0 and SPL variations in speech affected the dose measures, suggesting that accumulation of phonation time alone is insufficient and the derived safety limits for vocalization will likely require refinement based on a more detailed knowledge of the differences in hand and vocal fold tissue morphology and their response to vibrational stress, and on the effect of recovery of the vocal Fold tissue during voicing pauses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Does the voice improve with vocal hygiene education? A study of some instrumental voice measures in a group of kindergarten teachers
TL;DR: The results suggest that teachers were able to improve their voices if they significantly reduced vocal abuses in daily life and practiced specific strategies to maintain classroom order and reduce the use of voice in teaching.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differences in voice quality between men and women: Use of the long-term average spectrum (LTAS)
TL;DR: The female voice showed greater levels of aspiration noise, located in the spectral regions corresponding to the third formant, which causes the female voice to have a more "breathy" quality than the male voice.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationship between subjective voice complaints and acoustic parameters in female teachers' voices
Leena Rantala,Erkki Vilkman +1 more
TL;DR: The results revealed a tendency of the MC group to have higher F0 and lower SPL and perturbation values than the FC group, and the index values correlated moderately with the subjective vocal complaints.
Journal ArticleDOI
Voicing and silence periods in daily and weekly vocalizations of teachers
TL;DR: The study begins to lay the groundwork for understanding vocal fatigue in terms of repetitive motion and collision of tissue, as well as recovery from such mechanical stress.
