The audible components of speech, however, are quantifiable and thus provide crucial data. This practical guide synthesizes the authors? decades of experience into a comprehensive set of tools that will allow students and early career researchers in the field to design and conduct rigorous studies that produce reliable and valid speech data and interpretations. The authors thoroughly review specific techniques for obtaining qualitative and quantitative speech data, including how to tailor the testing environments for optimal results. They explore observational tasks for collecting natural speech and experimental tasks for eliciting specific types of speech. Language comprehension tasks are also reviewed so researchers can study participants? interpretations of speech and conceptualizations of grammar. Most tasks are oriented towards children, but special considerations for infants are also reviewed, as well as multilingual children. Chapters also provide strategies for transcribing and coding raw speech data into reliable data sets that can be scientifically analyzed. Furthermore, they investigate the intricacies of interpretation so that researchers can make empirically sound inferences from their data and avoid common pitfalls that can lead to unscientific conclusions. 410 0$aLanguage and the human lifespan series. 606 $aLanguage acquisition$xResearch$xMethodology 606 $aLanguage acquisition$xResearch$xData processing 606 $aLanguage acquisition$xPsychological aspects$xResearch 606 $aLanguage and languages$xAge differences 606 $aChildren$xLanguage$xPsychological aspects 606 $aSpeech acts (Linguistics)$xResearch 606 $aPsycholinguistics 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aLanguage acquisition$xResearch$xMethodology. 615 0$aLanguage acquisition$xResearch$xData processing. 615 0$aLanguage acquisition$xPsychological aspects$xResearch. 615 0$aLanguage and languages$xAge differences. 615 0$aChildren$xLanguage$xPsychological aspects. 615 0$aSpeech acts (Linguistics)$xResearch. 615 0$aPsycholinguistics. 676 $a401/.930721 700 $aBlume$b Mari?a$01045500 702 $aLust$b Barbara C.$f1941- 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910155389403321 996 $aResearch methods in language acquisition$92471837 997 $aUNINA
