Revision as of 06:59, 22 July 2008
This page organises and shows off my research on the phonetics of Kyrgyz dialects which I am conducting in the 2007-2008 academic year on a Fulbright grant.
Human Subjects
After determining how I was going to conduct my project, I applied for human subjects approval. This was finally granted in April. My questionnaires and consent forms, as well as some sample images were approved.
Preparation
- Decide what topics to examine most closely (Things to look at in Kyrgyz dialects#Linguistic topics)
- Decide what word forms/patterns would fit these topics (Things to look at in Kyrgyz dialects#List of forms to elicit)
- Find words to match these patterns (Things to look at in Kyrgyz dialects#Organising Wordlist)
- Organise words, weed out unneeded, add extra (Things to look at in Kyrgyz dialects#Final Wordlist)
- Take pictures of words found
- Print pictures
Elicitation
Results
This section shows off my results. At this point, there's just some demographic data of the first 18 subjects, as of 21 July 2008, including a map of subjects' regional affiliations and a graph of age distribution of subjects based on year of birth.
