Abstract [Introduction] The aim of the present study is to examine the electromyographic activities of selected laryngeal muscles which are considered to serve as adductors of the vocal folds during speech utterances. In the experiments to be discussed here, the thyroarytenoid muscle and the lateral cricoarytenoid (lateralis) muscle were examined. Strictly speaking, the thyroarytenoid muscles consists of multiple anatomical portions. In the present study, however, the most medially situated portion (the internal thyroarytenoid or the vocalis muscle) was aimed at as the object of examination.
