Abstract:
A single group pretest-posttest study will examine a vocalization and choral singing program designed to improve the voices and speech of 32 people with Parkinson’s disease. Participants attend two sessions per week for six weeks. Outcomes to be examined include communication functioning (perceptually judged voice quality and self assessed intelligibility) and voice related quality of life in community living.
