Can Hypernasality be Reliably Rated Using the American English Phrase Sample as a Part of the Cleft Audit Protocol for Speech-Augmented-Americleft Modification (CAPS-A-AM) Protocol?
<i>Background</i>The American English Phrase Sample is an alternative repetition stimulus that can be used as a part of the Cleft Audit Protocol for Speech-Augmented-Americleft Modification.<i>Problem</i>Reliability for rating hypernasality is unknown when the phrase sample is used.<i>Solution</i>Assessed intra- and interrater reliability for rating hypernasality.<i>What we did</i>Intrarater reliability was <i>k</i> = 0.76-0.91 and interrater reliability was <i>k</i> = 0.63-0.77. The phrase sample had the same reliability for rating hypernasality as the sentence sample.
