How the “Machinery” of Sense Production Changes Over Time
In the current chapter, we seek to document how differences in practice across different occasions can in some cases evidence change in the underlying “machinery” of sense production and, in this way, demonstrate a change in member competence. We track two students, Dana and Stephanie, as they work through a mathematical story problem, first in the second grade and then again in the third. We argue that changes over time to the “machinery” of sen…
The importance of interaction effects
Published studies of linguistic variation usually concentrate on the main effects apparent for linguistic and social factor groups. By contrast, interaction effects, whereby the influence of some factor(s) is conditional on the values of other factor groups, have received considerably less attention and, even when recognized, are rarely quantified. Interaction effects involving linguistic factor groups are especially rarely acknowledged, even tho…
Text Categories and Where You Can Stick Them
This paper applies principal components analysis (PCA) to solve the problem of interpreting pre-existing corpus text categories for analysis of linguistic variation. The method is illustrated by constructing an index of the complex notion "formality " from PCA of a set of high-frequency wordform-based counts. The first principal component from this analysis acts as a broad formality index; a second principal component is tentatively identified as…
