lang-research-design

separate

Use when defending the empirical design of a Language (LSA) manuscript on the terms of its subfield — elicitation and fieldwork, corpus construction, phonetic measurement, experiment, or the diachronic/typological sample. Language judges each kind of evidence by its own standards, and the design must support the theoretical claim. Defends the design; it does not run the analysis.

When to use

• Choosing or justifying the design before data collection or analysis
• Defending elicitation, consultant sample, corpus coverage, measurement, or typological sample
• Aligning the evidence with the analysis's predictions
• Defending mixed-evidence work components
• Reviewing design for fieldwork, corpus, phonetic, experimental, diachronic, typological, or computational subfields

When not to use

• Running the analysis
