However, the disk that I have is fairly old (it's from Kay Elemetrics, before Kay was purchased by Pentax) and I am not sure if they have added anything to the database more recently.

I came across several references to the "KayPentax Disordered Voice Database" (also called MEEI database). Does anyone know whether this database contains useful material for research on this particular type of pathological voices and how to obtain it? The website of the producer (KayPentax) does not provide much information regarding this. For any help I am very thankful! Best regards, Olaf Schleusing
