2	The Association between Sleep Patterns and Singing Voice Quality during the COVID-19 Pandemic Simmons, Erica Vernice 08 1900 (has links) This study investigated the associations between sleep patterns and singing voice quality in 231 adult singers of various skill levels across the United States. The four-part survey using a general questionnaire on demographics, musical background, vocal health, and three established survey instruments: the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), the Singing Voice Handicap Index-10 (SVHI-10), and the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) found that while scores were worse than normative values for the PSQI and the SVHI-10, a Pearson correlation between the two showed a moderate association. A linear regression also yielded that 8.9% of the variance in SVHI-10 scores could be predicted from PSQI scores. While further research is needed in this area, this study suggests that the amount of sleep needed for an optimal singing voice may be different from the amount needed to feel well-rested for some singers. Moreover, singers may overestimate the influence of sleep on their singing voices. singing voice vocal health Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index Singing Voice Handicap Index-10 sleep pattern sleep quality voice quality singing quality COVID-19 pandemic health and music Voice -- Care and hygiene.
