Abstract:Objective: To analyze perceptual-auditory and acoustic characteristics of children's voices of different age ranges. Patients and Methods: Ninety-three 3- to 10-year-old children grouped from 3 to 5, 6 to 7, and 8 to 10 years served as participants. The severity of vocal deviation and the parameters of roughness, breathiness, strain, and instability were assessed using a visual analog scale. We calculated the mean and standard deviation of fundamental frequency (F₀), jitter, shimmer, and glottal-to-noise excit… Show more
