Abstract

In the present paper, we sought to determine the vocal characteristics in older adults who attend to various workshops at the National University of San Luis (UNSL), Argentina.

The voice in the elderly, is not considered important and is «abandoned».

In order to determine the vocal characteristics of this group were held, surveys to  directors of some of the workshops and vocal characteristics thereof were observed.

Senile voice, due to a natural phenomenon, is easily recognized, being hoarse, trembling, slow speech, among others.
