Results of one-way ANOVA for the parametric curve-fitting coefficients a and b for elastic shear modulus (G’) and dynamic viscosity (η’), and post-hoc Tukey tests for pairwise comparisons of the coefficient a for η’ among three portions of the canine vocal fold cover: anterior (n = 5), middle (n = 6), and posterior (n = 5); and the human vocal fold cover [16] (n = 7).

Viscoelastic function	Parametric coefficient	F (3, 18)	p value
G’	a	1.129	0.363
G’	b	0.549	0.627
η’	a	16.853	< 0.001
η’	b	1.083	0.381

Pairwise comparisons for η’ (coefficient a)	p value
Human vs. canine cover (middle)	< 0.001
Human vs. canine cover (posterior)	0.005
Human vs. canine cover (anterior)	0.001
Canine cover (middle vs. anterior)	0.197
Canine cover (middle vs. posterior)	0.063
Canine cover (anterior vs. posterior)	0.922
