Abstract
In examining children, youths and adults, oral airflow and air pressure were found to vary as a function of consonants and their position in words. The pressure values vary as a function of consonant voicing, manner of production, stress and intensity. The effects of age and sex remain unclear. The possible causes are discussed with respect to the structural and biomechanical differences (lung capacity, lung elasticity and oral cavity) between children and adults.
