Data were analyzed using the non-parametric Mann-Whitney and Pearson correlation, considering the significance level of 5%. Results: the study group had significantly higher levels in the functional domain of the Voice Handicap Index and significantly lower in the social-emotional domain Voice-Related Quality of Life.
