Note: Vocal Fatigue and “self-reported voice problems” were obtained from the baseline Vocal Health Questionnaire. VHI total score and self-rating were obtained from the baseline VHI. “Percent Phonation Time” is based on the percent of time phonation occurred while the dosimeter was attached and turned on.
