Abstract
The inter-relationship between vocal behaviour and psychological variables is discussed through a review of the literature. Emotional and personality correlates of normal voice, the relationship between psychopathology and voice, and psychological concomitants of voice disorders are discussed. Possible reasons for the existence of a relationship are considered and research problems in the area are highlighted. The difficulty in separating vocal and psychological variables is emphasized and the consequences for assessment and treatment are considered.Keywords
