INTRODUCTION: In Brazil, there aren t any instruments to evaluate the condition of teacher s voice production. Due to this, since 1999, an instrument has been being built according to the complaints of these professionals, and proposes to fulfill this necessity. To do so, it is necessary to check the reproducibility of the self-reference of the dimension of the vocal aspects in the questionnaire named Conditions of the Teacher s Vocal Production (CPV-P). Verify if a participant when stating that he has symptoms such as: hoarseness, tiredness when speaking, flaw in voice, among others, will confirm these vocal complaints a while later. OBJECTIVE: Evaluate the reproducibility of the questions regarding vocal dimension that are part of the instrument CPV-P. METHOD: A transversal observational study was performed with the objective of preceding the reproducibility test of one of the dimensions of the instrument. The sample was, by convenience, recruited in a sequence, among teachers with vocal disorders that looked for speech therapy treatment in a public hospital in the city of São Paulo. The questionnaire was filled in during two moments, with a 15 day interval between its applications. The variables where analyzed in a descriptive manner compared considering test and re-test through Kappa (p <0,05), to evaluate the concordance between the results of both instrument applications. RESULTS: The population was made up of 36 teachers of the public school of São Paulo city, the majority married (47,2%), with a college graduation (91,7%), between 11 and 20 years of professional experience (55,7%), that teach in pre-school (61,1%), work for more than 40 hours a week (27,8%), in only 1 school (58,3%) and with a defined class (80,6%). Regarding vocal symptoms, the highest measure of reliability was deep voice (k = 0,74) and the lowest, hoarseness (k = 0,52). Concerning the laryngopharyngeal sensations, the measure that presented highest level of reliability was pain while speaking (k = 0,59) and the lowest was hem (k = 0,36). In vocal habits at work, what presented highest measure of reliability was drinking water during class (k = 0,88) and what registered lowest measure of reliability was speaking in an open space (k = 0,41). In the vocal aspects of diverse nature, the highest level of reliability registered was missing work due to voice problems (k = 0,86) and what presented the lowest level was having received orientation about vocal health (k = 0,54). CONCLUSION: The results indicated that the dimensions of the vocal aspects of the questionnaire (CPV-P) presented in the reproducibility test and re-test study, concordance level between regular and excellent. The majority of the Kappa coefficients, for the items analyzed in the questionnaire, where higher than 0,50 and the results indicated that these symptoms/sensations and habits are trustworthy for epidemiological studies
