When you sing you sing a particular note, however there is a series of harmonic notes at higher frequencies that you create at the same time. What we say the note you are singing is, is actually the lowest of several notes that you are, in a sense, singing.
There's a particular harmonic called the Singer's formant that is somewhere in the range 2000-4000 hz. Perceptually it is associated with a "ringing" sound. It also allows Opera singers to be heard over an orchestra, because few instruments play in that range. There is some evidence that the relative loudness of this harmonic, compared to the fundamental note you are singing, is associated with a better sound, indeed one study found it was almost perfectly correlated with people's ratings of the quality of the singing.
SPR is an expression of how loud your singers formant is relative to your harmonic fundamental.
As a avid karaoker, I salute this! Is there an ELIF for singing power ratio? I couldn't grasp it from just the abstract.

you have to fix your timing, you start almost every phrase one beat late
Yes lol I have no natural sense of rhythm.
