Using .cut files

[Adrienne De Froy]

We are trying to determine how parents respond to children based on what 
behaviors the child uses to communicate. When the child communicates, the 
CHI line has a dependent tier (SCA) indicating child behavior and the MOT 
line has a dependent tier (RES) indicating the parent’s response. We are 
trying to use CLAN to pull the CHI lines with desired SCA codes designated 
in a .cut file and the corresponding MOT/RES lines (in other words, we are 
trying to use the .cut file to limit the what SCA codes are returned).

 

Using: 

 

kwal +t*chi +t%xsca +t*MOT  +t%xres +s$* +d2 +re *b*.cha

 

successfully pulls all CHI lines that have an SCA code and their 
corresponding MOT lines/RES codes. I run into difficulty when using the 
following to add the .cut file:

 

kwal +t*chi +t*MOT +t%xsca +t%xres +s at filename.cut +d2 +re *b*.cha

 

Specifically, one of two cases occurs:


   - If I include only desired SCA codes in the .cut file, the output only 
   provides CHI/SCA lines without corresponding MOT or RES tiers.
   - If I include desired SCA codes plus all possible RES codes in the .cut 
   file, the output still provides the correct CHI/SCA tiers from the .cut 
   file but also provides *all* MOT and RES lines.

 

Is there a way to pull only the CHI lines with the desired SCA code plus 
the corresponding MOT/RES tiers, without also pulling unnecessary MOT/RES 
lines?
