The Significance of Voice Quality
The quality of a person's voice can reveal much about their emotional state and cognitive processes. Two main voices are identified: the intellectual and the emotional. The intellectual voice tends to be cold and fact-driven, often causing listeners to disengage unless excited by the topic. In contrast, when the emotional voice is expressed, it pauses thoughtfully and resonates more fully, allowing for genuine connection and communication.
