abstract

  • Objective: Excessive supraglottic and abnormal fine vibratory characteristics associated with vocal hyperfunction are identified even in individuals with normal laryngeal structure, function and vocal quality when they undergo stroboscopy, possibly due to anxiety. The purpose of this study is to (a) test for vocal hyperfunction in individuals with normal laryngeal structure and function and if present, (b) to track changes in vocal hyperfunction associated with anxiety when stroboscopy is repeated within 24-48 h.
