Abstract
The purpose of this research was to study the speaking fundamental frequency (SFF) levels of young Polish males and compare them with similar populations of US males. To this end 103 Polish university students read a standard passage which was recorded and analyzed for SFF. The mean SFF level for this population was approximately 138 Hz, a value somewhat higher than that for 157 US male university students. Since there was also a size difference between the two populations, this factor was tested and found not to relate to SFF. Possibly the differences between the two groups relate to crosscultural factors.
