title: Speech Range Profile (SRP) Findings Before and After Mutational Falsetto (Puberphonia).
abstract: BACKGROUND
  Mutational falsetto is a temporary adolescent voice. Voice therapy support in mutational falsetto helps the individual to regain a healthy voice. Speech Range Profile (SRP) is considered to be a method requiring less time in the pretherapy and posttherapy evaluations of voice patients.
  
  
  OBJECTIVE
  The purpose of this study was to determine the differences between the SRP results of male subjects experiencing mutational falsetto before and after therapy.
  
  
  METHODS
  Sixteen male participants have been included in this study. F0, MinF0, MaxF0, F0Range, F0Range (st), MindB SPL, and MaxdB SPL have been taken to evaluation. SRP recordings of all subjects have been performed. All the recordings have been repeated before and after therapy.
  
  
  RESULTS
  A statistically significant difference has been observed between the F0 and MinF0 values before and after therapy (P < 0.001).
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  SRP provides important information about frequency and intensity. In mutational falsetto, SRP is a useful technique in terms of evaluating success in therapy.
