Download or read book An Evaluation of the Effect of Two Treatment Protocols for College Students with Voice Disorders written by Lauren Michelle Hauck and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An individual is said to have a voice disorder when pitch, loudness, and quality of the voice differ from persons of comparable gender, age, cultural background, and geographic location. Few formal research studies have been conducted to examine the effects of voice therapy. The purpose of this pilot study was to examine the effects of two voice treatment protocols (Group A: Vocal Function Exercises, Vocal Hygiene; Group B: Vocal Function Exercises, Vocal Hygiene, Resonance Therapy) with eight college students diagnosed with voice disorders. Outcome variables included: (a) participant self-perception of voice handicap, (b) clinician perception of voice disorder, and (c) videostroboscopic, acoustic, and aerodynamic measurements. A secondary purpose was to determine the relationship between participants' personality type and compliance with voice treatment. Positive trends were noted for some videostroboscopic, perceptual, acoustic, and aerodynamic measures. A trend was found that participants with high extroversion scores had lower compliance with treatment protocol.
