Vocology

Vocology

Vocology, originally coined by voice scientist Ingo R. Titze [Titze, I. R. (2008). The human instrument. Sci.Am. 298 (1):94-101. PM 18225701] , has been defined as the science and practice of voice habilitation [Carroll, LM. (2000). Application of singing techniques for the treatment of dysphonia. Otolaryngol Clin North Am. 33(5):1003-16. [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10984766?ordinalpos=2&itool=EntrezSystem2.PEntrez.Pubmed.Pubmed_ResultsPanel.Pubmed_RVDocSum PMID: 10984766] ] [van Mersbergen M et al. (2001). "Preparation of the speech-language pathologist specializing in voice: an educational survey.", J Voice. 15(2):237-50. [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11411477?ordinalpos=1&itool=EntrezSystem2.PEntrez.Pubmed.Pubmed_ResultsPanel.Pubmed_RVDocSum PMID: 11411477] ] [Titze, I.R. (1994). Principles of Voice Production, Prentice Hall. ISBN 978-0137178933] . It parallels audiology, the study of hearing and the treatment of hearing disorders. Vocology combines the disciplines of speech and language pathology, and laryngology, as well as singing training and voice training for actors and public speakers. The study of vocology has advanced such that it is a fundamental part of current voice research (including a journal entitled Logopedics, Phoniatrics, Vocology) and training programs.Fact|date=June 2008 Training in vocology is or have been offered at institutions such as the National Center for Voice and Speech (Denver, CO), Westminster Choir College of Rider University (Princeton, NJ), The Grabscheid Voice Center at Mount Sinai Medical Center (NY), and the Vox Humana Laboratory at St. Luke's Roosevelt Hospital (NY).
