Non-invasive evaluation of vibratory kinematics of phonation in children

• Developmentally, children do not have five well-defined layers of the vocal folds as adults. Also, children are often less able to tolerate the invasiveness of endoscopy. Electroglottography (EGG) is not invasive, but little is known of how the EGGs of children differs from those of adults. The goal of this study was to quantify some differences in the shape of the EGG waveform between children and adults, while accounting for the sensitivity to variation in the independent variables fo and SPL. A novel mapping of EGG waveform parameters over the speech and voice ranges was employed
