Abstract

The object of this investigation was to accurately record spectrographic speech sounds, or patterns, of a cleft palate group and a group without clefts of the palate. Differences in the incidence, or degree, of lisping and correlations of the obtained speech patterns to the existing morphological structures were statistically analyzed.
