Deaf male vocalizers also produced relatively more tonal (higher HNR) pain vocalizations ( F 1,58 = 5.8, p = 0.019), and while differences in amplitude were marginally nonsignificant (mean AMP, F 1,58 = 3.8, p = 0.057), the pain vocalizations of deaf male vocalizers were slightly quieter then were those of male controls (Supplementary Table 8 ).
