“…Due to the small sample sizes of the ADHD and control groups, the interpretations of results are to be regarded as descriptive and not conclusive. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was run on each variable to determine the normality of the distribution [44] . A Levene's test was employed to evaluate whether the data seta had equal or unequal variances [44] .…”

A Levene's test was employed to evaluate whether the data seta had equal or unequal variances [44] . An independent t-test was conducted where the normality assumption was met, in order to detect for significant differences between the groups' acoustic means (Jitter % , Shimmer % , F0, NHR, Highest dB, Lowest dB, F-Hi and F-Lo) [44] .…”

Prepubertal, school-aged children with or without ADHD may have similar vocal characteristics than previously thought. This is in support of the null hypothesis. The authors of the current study recommend that vocal screening in all school-aged children be carried out as an effective measure to monitor voice disorders in the pediatric population. Future research into larger sample sizes with this population with a special focus on the effect that central nervous system stimulants may have on the voice is recommended.

“…This is also due to the fact that the use of different analysis software influences the total DSI score. Considering the published studies and our own experience with the DSI as an outcome measure for voice quality, we have determined a score higher than 2.0 to be normal for the pediatric population . Of our study population, no less than 77% of the patients had a clinically significant voice disturbance with a DSI score below 2.0.…”

“…Unfortunately, there are no internationally established norm values for the DSI in the pediatric population. In the few studies on the use of the DSI in children, the normal DSI values differ strongly . For this study, we presumed that a total DSI score under 2.0 is associated with significant voice disturbance in the pediatric population.…”
