Assessing the Effects of Patient Self-Rating of Voice Quality on Voice Therapy Attendance and Outcomes

The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of incorporating educational online modules into voice therapy. One of the main reasons that voice therapy fails is lack of participation and engagement from the patient's side. The researchers hope to learn if increasing patient engagement via educational online modules during this waiting period between evaluation and first therapy session is useful in increasing understanding of the therapeutic framework of voice therapy.
