A FACTOR ANALYSIS OF TWELVE PHYSICAL MEASURES OF VOICE

A FACTOR ANALYSIS OF TWELVE PHYSICAL MEASURES OF VOICE

The following four factors emerged from the analyses: time, power, power variability, and pitch variability. Although the importance of vocal intensity and syllable duration in voice intelligibility are well recognized, the findings of this study indicate that pitch variability and power (intensity)...

Zusammenfassung:The following four factors emerged from the analyses: time, power, power variability, and pitch variability. Although the importance of vocal intensity and syllable duration in voice intelligibility are well recognized, the findings of this study indicate that pitch variability and power (intensity) variability are also important to good voice communications. Consequently, communications training programs designed to improve speech intelligibility should include instruction and drill in these variables. (Author)
