Vocal Tremor

Vocal tremor is measured according to the methods described in this paper by Marcus Bruckl and we highly suggest reading that work to help better understand the variables below.

Raw Variables

VariableDescription
mov_freqtremfreqFrequency tremor frequency (FTrF): Frequency of the strongest low-frequency modulation of Fundamental frequency contour.
mov_freqtremindexFrequency tremor intensity index (FTrI): Intensity or magnitude of the strongest low frequency modulation of Fundamental frequency contour.
mov_freqtrempindexFrequency tremor power index (FTrP): Power index of the strongest low frequency modulation of Fundamental frequency contour.
mov_amptremfreqAmplitude tremor frequency (ATrF): Frequency of the strongest low-frequency modulation of Amplitude contour.
mov_amptremindexAmplitude tremor intensity index (ATrI): Intensity/magnitude of the strongest low frequency modulation of Amplitude contour.
mov_amptrempindexAmplitude tremor power index (ATrP): Power index of the strongest low frequency modulation of Amplitude contour.

Derived Variables
