Abstracts

PL

The article discusses the factors determining the occurrence of voice emission problems, including internal, external, and psychosocial ones. It was proposed to distinguish the psychological / psychosocial factors as a separate group. The results of the research conducted among teachers (N = 265) in schools in the Silesian provinces show how psychological factors affect the self-assessment of voice (emotional, functional, and physical, measured by means of the Voice Handicap Indexscale); these factors are: the level of perceived stress (PSS10), anxiety (STAI I and II – anxiety as a trait and anxiety as a state), self-assessment (SES) and life satisfaction (SWLS). The article describes the results of original research on the dependence of psychosocial factors and voice disability.
