Abstract

Due to differences in singing styles and voice production between classical and popular music singers, their knowledge and practice regarding vocal hygiene may differ. This study compared the knowledge and practice of vocal hygiene among 121 university undergraduate students (58 classical and 63 popular music vocal majors). Additionally, the correlation between the level of knowledge and practice of vocal hygiene and the subjective voice evaluation was examined. The results revealed that both knowledge and practice of vocal hygiene were significantly higher in classical than popular music vocal majors, and that vocal hygiene practice was significantly higher than knowledge in the entire group. In addition, there was a weak positive correlation between knowledge and practice of vocal hygiene; and a weak negative correlation between vocal hygiene practice and subjective voice evaluation. This study suggests that popular music vocal majors have relatively lower levels of knowledge and practice in vocal hygiene than classical music vocal majors. It also highlights the need to provide tailored vocal hygiene education programs for both classical and popular music vocal majors, as they show low levels of knowledge and practice in certain aspects of vocal hygiene.

성악과 실용음악 간에 추구하는 노래와 발성의 차이로 인해 이들의 음성위생에 대한 지식과 수행하는 수준은 다를 수 있다. 본 연구는 대학교에서 성악 또는 실용음악을 전공하는 대학생 121(성악전공생 58, 실용음악전공생 63)명을 대상으로 음성위생 지식과 수행을 비교하였다. 또한 음성위생 지식과 수행 정도와 주관적 음성평가 간의 상관성을 살펴보았다. 연구결과, 음성위생 지식과 수행 모두 성악전공생이 실용음악전공생에 비해 유의하게 높았으며, 전체 집단에서 음성위생 수행이 지식에 비해 유의하게 높은 점수를 보였다. 또한 음성위생 지식과 수행 정도는 낮은 양의 상관관계를 보였고, 음성위생 수행과 주관적 평가는 낮은 음의 상관관계를 보였다. 본 연구를 통해 성악전공생에 비해 실용음악전공생이 음성위생 지식과 수행 정도가 상대적으로 낮다는 것을 알 수 있다. 또한 성악전공생과 실용음악전공생 모두 특정 음성위생 항목에 대한 지식과 수행수준이 낮아 이들에게 맞는 맞춤형 음성위생 교육프로그램을 제공할 필요가 있음을 밝혔다.
