Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of incorporating educational online modules into voice therapy. One of the main reasons that voice therapy fails is lack of participation and engagement from the patient's side. The researchers hope to learn if increasing patient engagement via educational online modules during this waiting period between evaluation and first therapy session is useful in increasing understanding of the therapeutic framework of voice therapy.

The novel online module the authors developed consists of a patient education on acoustic-perceptual rating of voice quality (CAPE-V), practice rating sample recordings of others' voices, and the patient's self-rating of their own voice in real time during a standard sentence-reading task. The module also includes the Self-Efficacy Scale for Voice Therapy.
