Abstract

Introduction: methodological and technological advances have figured in all areas of Speech Therapy and it would not be different in speech sciences, specifically in acoustic phonetics. Dermatoglyphics is the scientific study of dermatopapillary ridges, found in fingerprints, considered a genetic marker and identifying basic physical abilities, such as strength, speed, endurance and motor coordination. The dermatoglyphic method has been used in the differential diagnosis of some syndromes, and is also an integral part of the vocal quality assessment process and spoken and singing voice professionals. Objective: to describe a proposal for a dermatoglyphic analysis script (DAF), which integrates the assessment of vocal quality, both for speaking and singing voice professionals, as well as for speakers who do not use their voice professionally. Description: the script of the dermatoglyphic method as a possible tool in Speech Therapy proposes the collection of fingerprints, the identification of the digital patterns and their predominance, the detection of the dermatoglyphic profile, of the digital formula, the sum of the number of lines and deltas of the fingers of the hands and the verification of the potentiated and non-potentiated physical abilities. Final considerations: this communication points to the integration of the dermatoglyphic method into the vocal quality assessment process of vocal and singing voice professionals. It also represents a line of inquiry about the focus on the muscular abilities of individuals, not only in the area of ​​voice, but in other areas of activity in Speech Therapy, through the DAF Script – Dermatoglyphics Applied to Speech Therapy.
