Abstract
The purpose of this paper was to verify the studied phenomenon (application of the
vocal warm up exercises model, as well as the designed and planned methodical
approach to learning songs by ear) by using an experiment with parallel groups. The
subject of this study was to determine whether it was possible to influence the quality
of singing and develop the vocal skills of younger school age students by implementing
a planned and directed methodical approach to learning songs by ear. In order to check
the effects of the implementation of the methodical model, the SAVS instrument (Scale
for the Assessment of Vocal Skills, Jeremić, 2011, p. 281) was used, subtests I, II, III, IV
and V (with equivalent forms for the initial and final assessment). In the comparison
of groups in relation to vocal skills, a general linear model was used, and in particular
a multivariate analysis of covariance with repeated measures (MANCOVA with
repeated measures). The sample of this research consisted of second grade students of
elementary schools in Sombor and Kikinda, Serbia. The tests of within subject effects
showed that the two groups differed in their level of vocal skills, when the average of
the two measurements was observed F (1) =11.424, p=.001.
