Objective: To investigate the psychometric properties of the Voice-Related Quality of Life (V-RQOL) questionnaire in Brazilian Portuguese by assessing its reliability and conducting exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA).
Methods: This research was carried out in two stages: (1) a document-based retrospective approach and (2) a field study step. The study included 566 dysphonic and vocally healthy individuals.
Introduction: Evaluating the relationship among teachers' voice symptoms, perceived voice control, and common mental disorders (CMDs) might contribute to the understanding of the relationship between vocal wear and the teacher well-being. The understanding of this relationship may also help in taking more informed clinical decisions in voice rehabilitation when considering possible perceived voice control difficulties and the need to develop voice self-control strategies.
Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the voice symptoms, perceived voice control, and CMDs in public elementary and secondary school teachers, and to analyze the relationships among these variables.
