<div dir="ltr">Dear all, I saw the question as HOW to combine transcripts, although Brian makes a very good point (and we are increasingly finding influences of activity on many language measures). I would say that the simplest thing to do to combine things for KidEval is just to cut and paste the content of one transcript into the other. This only works if you do not need the two audios for measures that are dependent on the linked audio. If you need the audio to reference values, you will also need to combine the audios.<div><br></div><div>N</div><div><br clear="all"><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div>Nan Bernstein Ratner, F-, H-ASHA, F-AAAS, ABCLD</div><div>Professor</div><div>Hearing and Speech Sciences</div><div>University of Maryland</div><div>0100 Lefrak Hall</div><div>College Park, MD 20742</div><div><a href="mailto:nratner@umd.edu" target="_blank">nratner@umd.edu</a>, 301-405-4217 <a href="https://umd.zoom.us/j/7924324343" target="_blank">My Zoom</a></div><div><br></div><div>Co-director: FluencyBank (<font color="#0000ff"><a href="http://www.fluency.talkbank.org" target="_blank">www.fluency.talkbank.org</a></font>); <a href="http://languagefluency.umd.edu/" target="_blank">http://languagefluency.umd.edu/</a> </div><div><br></div><div>Immediate Past President, International Fluency Association (IFA; <a href="http://theifa.org" target="_blank">http://theifa.org</a>)</div><div><br></div><div>Faculty, Language Science (<a href="http://languagescience.umd.edu" target="_blank">languagescience.umd.edu</a>; Neuroscience & Cognitive Neuroscience (NACS, <a href="http://nacs.umd.edu" target="_blank">nacs.umd.edu</a>), Developmental Science Field Committee</div><div><br></div><div><a href="https://hesp.umd.edu/facultyprofile/bernstein-ratner/nan" target="_blank">https://hesp.umd.edu/facultyprofile/bernstein-ratner/nan</a><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>My PubMed bibliography: <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/myncbi/1RORcBHUvuRQ82/bibliography/public/" target="_blank"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(17,85,204);background-color:transparent;font-weight:700;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/myncbi/1RORcBHUvuRQ82/bibliography/public/</span></a></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Tue, Sep 6, 2022 at 4:24 PM Brian Macwhinney <<a href="mailto:macw@cmu.edu">macw@cmu.edu</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">Dear Sophie,<br>
I assume that you are talking about two samples from the same child taken at about the same time. For example, you could take a sample in the morning and then give the child a break and take another sample in the afternoon. That would be more or less okay. You could essentially combine these two sessions into a single transcript. That would increase reliability of some of the measures, but you would need to recognize the fact that the comparison samples in the database were not given the benefit of that type of treatment. <br>
