Q

incresing loudness requires three components: first there mucst be an increase in ______, which requires and increase in ________ so that ______ can be increased. All three of those incrases will result in a longer ________ during the vibratory cycle compared to low-intensity phonation.

A

respiratory effort

tension in the vocal folds/ medial compression of the vocal folds

subglottic pressure

closed phase

Q

For decreased intensity, less tension is needed in the _________ muscles, resulting in (increased, decreased) laryngeal resistance and (increased, decreased) airflow.

A

lateral cricoarytenoid and interarytenoid

decreased

Q

The register that we speak in is _______ register, which incolves a (tightly, loosely) coupled body adn cover of the vocal folds, causing a (prominent, insignificant) mucosal wave to be present during vocal fold bibration. Acousticall, this register results ina (full, reduced) laryngeal spectrum. Perceptually, the voice sounds_______

A

modal

loosley

prominent

full

full, loud resonsant

Q

In the higher frequencies, we get into ____________ register, or falsetto, IN this register, teh body and cover of the vocal folds are (tightly, loosely) coupled, causing a (prominent, insignificant) mucosal wave to be present during vocal fold vibration. Acousticall, this register results in a (full, reduced) laryngeal spectrum. Perceptually, the voice sounds _________

A

loft

tightly

insignificant

reduced

thin, weak, soft

Q

At the lower end of the pitch range is _______ register. The voice produced in theis register is very low-pitched and rough, with “popping” sounds in it. This register is (good, harmful) tot he vocal folds becasue __________.

A

pulse or glottal fry

harmful

it requires extreme laryngeal tension

Q

The vocal quality of roughness is physiologically due to __________ This condition can be caused by _________ or __________

A

Q

When a voice has the qualities of both roughness and tense breathiness, we say the voice is _________. In theis type of vice, the rough component is due to ________ and the tense component is due to _________

A

hoarse

irregular vocal fold vibration, usually due to a vocal fold lesion causing uneven weighting

glottal gaps along the vocal fold length anterior and posterior to the lesions

the speaker trying to force the vocal folds together around the lesion

Q

Alophonic breakes are characterized by ___________. The reason that they occur is that ___________

A

short-duration voiceless intervals the length of a syllable or word
