本研究试图为44名欧美老年人和40名非裔美国老年人的发声提供初步的规范性数据，并检验以下假设：(1)欧美老年人与非裔美国老年人的发声声学参数没有显著差异；(2)老年男性说话者（欧美裔和非裔美国人）与老年女性说话者（欧美裔和非裔美国人）的声音声学参数没有显著差异。来自阿肯色州东北部的44名欧洲裔美国人（21名男性和23名女性）和40名非洲裔美国人（20名男性和20名女性）老年人（70至80岁）的声音样本进行了15个选择的多维声音轮廓（KAY eletrics）声学参数的测量。分析表明，欧美老年扬声器与非裔美国老年扬声器在所有选择的声音声学参数的测量上没有显著差异，老年男性扬声器作为一个群体，在绝对抖动、柔和发声指数、基频标准差以及以Hz为单位的基频的测量上与老年女性扬声器存在差异。研究结果表明，可能没有必要为欧美和非裔美国老年人建立单独的声音标准。然而，声音的一些声学参数是高度依赖于性别的，无论他们的种族起源如何，男性和女性说话者可能需要不同的规范。
This study sought to provide preliminary normative data for the vocal productions of 44 Euro-American and 40 African-American elderly speakers and to test the hypotheses that (1) Euro-American elderly speakers do not have significantly different acoustic parameters of voice from African-American elderly speakers, and (2) elderly male speakers (both Euro-American and African-American) do not have significantly different acoustic parameters of voice from elderly female speakers (both Euro-American and African-American). Voice samples from groups of 44 Euro-American (21 men and 23 women) and 40 African-American (20 men and 20 women) elderly speakers (ages 70 to 80 years) from northeastern Arkansas were compared on measures of 15 selected multidimensional voice profile (KAY Elemetrics) acoustic parameters. Analysis show that Euro-American elderly speakers did not differ significantly from African-American elderly speakers on the measurements of all the selected acoustic parameters of voice, and elderly male speakers as a group differed from elderly female speakers on the measurements of absolute jitter, soft phonation index, and standard deviation of the fundamental frequency as well as fundamental frequency in Hz. The findings suggest it may not be necessary to establish separate acoustic norms of voice for Euro-American and African-American elderly speakers. However, some acoustic parameters of voice are highly sex-dependent, and different norms may be needed for male and female speakers regardless of their racial origins.
