  1. Statistically significant correlations are highlighted with an asterisk. Correlation co-efficient size interpretation: 0.0–0.3, negligible correlation; 0.3–0.5, low correlation; 0.5–0.7, moderate correlation; 0.7–0.9, high correlation, 0.9–1.0: very high correlation [18]. NHR noise-to-harmonic ratio, MPT maximum phonation time
