The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between subjective and objective measure of nasality in male and female subjects who were considered to have normal speech. The findings indicated that although there was very little correlation between judged nasality ratings and measures of the oral and nasal sound pressure levels, there were a number of factors, such as the sex of the subject and the degree of nasality, which should be considered in all objective measures of this type.
