“…Closer inspection of the current results revealed that difference between nasalance values for the vowels /a/ and /i/ ranged between 8 and 20 points. These findings agree with those obtained previously by other researchers (18,21,28) . According to the literature (18) , these findings were also expected since lower vowels, in contrast to higher, have relatively lower tongue position, which decreases oral sound impedance.…”

“…Similar results were seen for Hungarian and Korean speaking children (26,27) and for a normal Brazilian Portuguese speaking population, including children, adolescents, young adults and adults (15) . The lower nasalance scores seen in the production of the neutral vowel is related to the position of the tongue (lower) and the size of the oral cavity (larger).…”

“…In the literature, a controversy exists about the differences in nasalance values, obtained by the Nasometer [4], for age and gender (table 1). Some authors report low correlations between age and nasalance [10,11,16,17,18,19,20], while others mention significantly lower nasalance values in younger children compared with older children for nasal sentences [21,22] and oral texts [22], or lower nasalance scores for certain speech stimuli in children compared with adults [23,24,25,26]. Possible explanations for these differences are the stronger evidence of coarticulation in adult speakers as a result of speaking experience [27], age-related changes in lymphoid and gland tissue at the velopharyngeal port [28], and the growth of the oropharynx [29] and nasal cavity [30].…”
