Table 4.

Descriptive statistics for event latencies for the four event sequences of interest. Latencies are calculated as: Event 2 minus Event 1. Negative latencies represent a pattern in which event 2 occurred prior to event 1. [AEstart = onset of arytenoid elevation, Pop = UES opening, BP1 = bolus arriving at the UES, HL = maximum approximation of hyoid and larynx, PESmax = maximum distension of the UES, PAmax = maximum constriction of the pharynx].
