“…40 In addition, the spectrographic information shows the loss of a clear formant structure, in particular above the second (F2) and the third (F3) formants ( 39 : p. 448). Crucially, however, there is also an increased amount of glottal friction in these energyattenuated frequencies (eg, 42 : p. 256; 41,43,44 ; 45 : p. 4). It is not entirely clear which specific acoustic measures are the best to capture differences in breathiness (eg, 33 ) and to what extent the most commonly used measures are correlated.…”

Normophonic Breathiness in Czech and Danish: Are Females Breathier Than Males?

et al. 2021

The present study compares the voice quality of female and male speech in two languages: Czech, a Slavic language, and Danish, a Germanic language. For both languages, the results based on a total of 120 vocally healthy speakers are in line with the claim that females are universally breathier than males. This was supported by the Cepstral Peak Prominence (CPP) and H1*-H2* measures, which are generally known as the most robust correlates of breathiness, and also by the H1*-A3* measure. However, the sex distinction was unsupported or even contradictory when using some other measures suggested to reflect breathiness, which provides an incentive to insist on employing a number of acoustic measures in future voice research. The perceptual component of the study nevertheless suggests that these contradictory findings are due to differences in perceived roughness rather than breathiness, and that CPP and H1*-H2* do reflect breathiness differences, and CPP in particular. We therefore conclude that it is indeed the case that female speakers are breathier than male speakers. Finally, in terms of the two robust measures (CPP and H1*-H2*), no language-specific differences in the magnitude of the effect of sex on breathiness were found.

The purpose of the present study was to compute the new version of Acoustic Voice Quality Index (AVQI) and compare with existing AVQI versions. Additionally, we also investigated the correlation between AVQI measurements and auditory-perceptual ratings, and confirmed the optimal cutoff value and diagnostic predictive power to distinguish between normal and pathological voice. Methods: Voice samples of 2,369 native Korean subjects with normal voices (N= 143) and with dysphonia (N= 2,226) were recorded through both 5 seconds of sustained vowel /a/ and connected speech (Korean text "Walk"). We used the Praat script to extract the voiced segments and measure the AVQI. Additionally, two auditory-perceptual ratings (grade in GRBAS and overall severity in CAPE-V) were used by five speech language pathologists to assess the voice disorder severity. Results: Overall AVQI measurements were higher in order of AVQIv2, AVQIv4-K and AVQIv3; and AVQIv3 was significantly lower than other AVQI measures. In each version, there was a significant difference between normal and pathological voice groups. The correlation between AVQI and auditory evaluation was above .82, and the correlation with AVQIv4-K was the highest. All versions of the AVQI showed an above .94 for AUC, above 9.5 for LR(+), and below .2 for LR(-). Conclusion: AVQIv4-K is considered to have a high level of diagnostic power comparable to the existing AVQI versions.
