Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine the age at which children with voice disorders can complete videostroboscopy, acoustic, and aerodynamic voice assessments. Factors predicting videostroboscopy tolerance were examined.
Method: A retrospective observational cohort design was used.

The goal of this study was to understand the interaction between the voice source spectral shape, formant tuning, and fundamental frequency in determining the vocal tract contribution to vocal intensity. Computational voice simulations were performed with parametric variations in both vocal fold and vocal tract configurations. The vocal tract contribution to vocal intensity was quantified as the difference in the A-weighted sound pressure level between the radiated sound pressure and the sound pressure at the glottis.

This study focuses on suprasegmental features and investigates how the use of a second tonal dialect influences the production of tones in the first dialect among bidialectal speakers of Chengdu Mandarin (CM) and Standard Mandarin (SM). Using a word-naming task, this study analyzed the acoustic differences between tones in SM and CM that share similar pitch contours and assessed the impact of SM use on CM tone production. How bidialectal listeners perceptually map SM tones onto CM categories was further evaluated using a dissimilarity rating task.
