Özet

Objectives. Normal voice can be differentiated from dysphonic voices by comparing their characteristics using an established normative database. Pediatric normative data using the Phonatory Aerodynamic System (PAS) have been established in a preliminary study for English-speaking children. However, aerodynamic measures, including physical characteristics varying by geographic region, race, and culture, must be investigated between children with different native languages. Aerodynamic analysis of connected speech requires the collection of language-specific samples and the establishment of language-specific norms. Thus, the main purpose of the present study was to establish pediatric normative data using the PAS for a large pediatric population of healthy Turkish-speaking children of 4-17.11 years of age. Another research aim was to determine age-dependent and/or gender-dependent aerodynamic parameters for this pediatric population.
