Developmental Changes in Laryngeal and Respiratory Function with Variations in Sound Pressure Level.

Stathopoulos, Elaine T.; Sapienza, Christine M.

Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, v40 n3 p595-614 Jun 1997

The development of the speech production system was investigated among 120 children (ages 4-14 years) and 20 adults. Aerodynamic and acoustic results suggest that men and 14-year-old boys function differently than women and all other groups of children. Data generally suggest that laryngeal and respiratory behavior of children is not easily predicted from an adult model. (Author/PB)
