The laryngeal component of voice quality markers has been quantified in the present study, suggesting that the laryngeal vestibule and lower pharynx play an important role in voice quality. Findings also show that voice quality can be partly described in terms of laryngeal configurations and that a knowledge of these configurations may be useful to the laryngologist, speech pathologist and singer. Twenty-five voice qualities were videorecorded, using a nasal fiberscope. Still photographs were taken for each voice quality and distance measurements made on each one for 15 laryngeal parameters. The raw data were normalized, sorted from high to low, turned into scalar values and processed to establish which parameters exhibited similar functions, which photographs were essentially identical, and in what respect any two photographs were different. Each voice quality was seen to be associated with a different, describable and quantifiable laryngeal configuration.
本研究已对嗓音质量标记物的喉部成分进行了量化，表明喉前庭和下咽在嗓音质量中起重要作用。研究结果还表明，嗓音质量可以部分地根据喉部结构来描述，并且了解这些结构可能对喉科医生、言语病理学家和歌手有用。使用鼻纤维镜对25种嗓音质量进行了视频记录。对每种嗓音质量拍摄静态照片，并对每张照片进行15个喉部参数的距离测量。对原始数据进行归一化处理，从高到低排序，转换为标量值，并进行处理，以确定哪些参数表现出相似的功能，哪些照片基本相同，以及任意两张照片在哪些方面不同。每种嗓音质量都与一种不同的、可描述和可量化的喉部结构相关联。
