Sentences were loaded with high front, low front, high back, low back, or mixed vowels. Velopharyngeal closure was verified by nasoendoscopy.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Participants<\/jats:title>\n Six female adults with normal speech and resonance provided the speech samples.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Main Outcome Measures<\/jats:title>\n Nasalance scores for each of five sentences in each of three palatal conditions.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n Mixed and high front sentences had significantly higher mean nasalance scores in the U ( P < .01) and H ( P < .05) conditions but not in the B condition.
