Testing a Voice Assessment Tool

(IRB#: IRB_00180249)

This study wants to test how the body responds to participation in creative arts activities. People in the study will be asked to complete two in-person visits at the study clinic. During the visit, participants will produce several voicing tasks wearing a face mask or a mouthpiece. Participants will be asked to rate their experience in using these devices. The activity will be measured, and information will be collected. Participants will be paid for being in the study.
