  • Description: <jats:p>This paper reports on the concurrent use of electroglottography (EGG) and electromagnetic articulography (EMA) in the acquisition of EMA trajectory data for running speech. Static and dynamic intersensor distances, standard deviations, and coefficients of variation associated with inter-sample distances were compared in two conditions: with and without EGG present. Results indicate that measurement discrepancies between the two conditions are within the EMA system's measurement uncertainty. Therefore, potential electromagnetic interference from EGG does not seem to cause differences of practical importance on EMA trajectory behaviors, suggesting that simultaneous EMA and EGG data acquisition is a viable laboratory procedure for speech research.</jats:p>
