Using a questionnaire format, 125 teachers of singing and 49 control subjects indicated whether they had a current or past voice problem, and provided information about their demographic characteristics, voice use patterns, and medication use. The results revealed similar rates of current voice problems reported by the two subject groups. However, teachers of singing were considerably more likely to report ever having had a voice problem than controls (64 vs. 33%). Risk factors were similar for the two groups. Dehydrating medications and a report of a past voice problem both increased the likelihood of perceiving a current problem, by a factor of three and five, respectively. Females were twice as likely to report a past voice problem as males, and younger subjects were slightly more likely to report a past problem as compared with older subjects. The implications of the findings are discussed from a theoretical as well as pragmatic perspective.
