C-NNLA output measures

[mara.st...@gmail.com]

Hi chiblots,

We were wondering if there was a way to determine which 
sentences/utterances are  included in the output measures from C-NNLA. 
Specifically, we are looking at the % sentences with flawed syntax. We are 
getting a mismatch between our manual coding and the automated output and 
are wondering if we are coding something incorrectly or different than the 
program. We see the formula in the CLAN manual (p.119), but were unsure of 
exactly how the calculation works, especially in terms of which utterances/ 
sentences get included (i.e., abandoned utterances, complete, etc.).

In the example below, C-NNLA reported 100% as the output for % sentences 
with flawed syntax. Manually, we counted 11 utterances total from the 
participant, 5 were excluded using [+exc] since they were unrelated to the 
picture description and 3 were marked as ungrammatical [+gram]. That would 
leave 3 utterances that could be counted as grammatically correct but we 
are not sure if single word or fragmented utterances were counted. It seems 
like there’s at least one grammatically correct sentence (“she's just out 
of it” - but includes a revision) making the reported value of 100% 
possibly incorrect.

*PAR: &-right now <where do I> [/] where do I put the <another> [>] +/. [+ 
exc] 
*INV: <you need> [<] to tell me about it . 
*PAR: or just tell you about it . [+ exc] 
*PAR: sorry &=laughs . [+ exc] 
*PAR: the mum's not very clever because she's xxx xxx sink &=laughs . [+ 
gram] 
*PAR: &-uh and the boys [: boy] [* m:+s] are [: is] [* m:vun:a] very 
naughty because they're [: he's] [* s:r:gc:pro] xxx the cookie jar and he's 
gonna fall off the +... [+ gram] [+ gcc] 
*PAR: I've done that before . [+ exc] 
*PAR: &-um yes . 
*PAR: and [e] &-yep xxx &+fai <the kid> [//] <the boy> [//] the &-um (.) 
girl was [: is] [* m] gaving [: giving] [* m] xxx her [//] him and her +... 
[+ gram] 
*PAR: and [e] &-you_know they're in the kitchen +... 
*PAR: she [//] she's just out of it . 
*PAR: &=laughs and that's about it . [+ exc] 
*INV: yep ! 

Thanks for your help!
