|
The present study was performed to investigate the characteristics of breath groups while reading paragraph in normaladults and adult patients with voice disorders. 10 normal females(avr. 20.6 yrs.), 10 young voice disorder females(avr. 33.5yrs., P1 group), and 10 old voice disorder females(avr. 56.3 yrs., P2 group) read a paragraph of 210 syllables. By using the‘Running Speech’ program of the Phonatory Aerodynamic System(PAS), total duration, numbers of breath groups, durationper breath group, and numbers of syllables per breath group were measured, and their correlations with aerodynamicmeasurement results of reading were analyzed. As a result, in total duration, numbers of breath groups, normals scoredhighest and P2 group speakers, lowest. Normals showed the longest duration per breath group which was not significant. P2group speakers showed the highest numbers of syllables per breath group. Correlation analysis showed significantly highcorrelation scores of total duration and expiratory airflow; numbers of breath groups and inspiratory volume.
