This workshop is part of a seminar series entitled 'Neuro-developmental disorders: Exploring sensitive methods of assessment across development' which explores recent findings in neurodevelopmental disorders, with a particular focus on 1) the new research tools and methods used, 2) discussion of the wider applicability of these new tools and methods across different neurodevelopmental disorders, 3) identifying future challenges or controversies when studying neurodevelopmental disorders using a developmental approach. The seminar series hopes to bring together specialists and established researchers as well as post-graduates, post-doctoral researchers and early career researchers in neurodevelopmental disorders. The series is sponsored by the British Psychological Society and the Williams syndrome Foundation UK and is being organised by Dr Jo van Herwegen, Dr Emily Farran and Dr Debbie Riby. In total three seminars will be held around the UK between June 2012 and April 2013.

Do I just simply change the new file name extension from .cex to .cha (and delete the original)? Or could this process have consequences when it comes to selecting files and carrying out analyses?

Message-ID: Dear Info-CHILDES, Thanks to the hard work of Joris Gillis and additional moral support from Steven Gillis, there is now a fully functioning mirror of the CHILDES site in Antwerp at http://www.cnts.ua.ac.be/childes/. This site continually mirrors all of the pages of the Pittsburgh site along with all of the transcripts and media. Having this mirror available provides an important backup for the system lest something unforeseen and catastrophic occur in Pittsburgh or even if we just make some silly mistake. Of course, we keep multiple backups of data, but having a complete online mirror provides a very different level of protection. Also, if the Pittsburgh site is occasionally down, people can access the Antwerp site and sometimes it may also prove to be more responsive, depending on network topography. At the moment, all of the pages and transcripts are available. Not all of the media are yet in place, but they will be there soon. I would like to stress that Joris has provided this mirror and the various scripts upon which it depends on a strictly volunteer basis. Many thanks to him for providing this service and to Steven for his moral support. -- Brian MacWhinney, CMU -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Info-CHILDES" group.

This workshop is part of a seminar series entitled 'Neuro-developmental disorders: Exploring sensitive methods of assessment across development' which explores recent findings in neurodevelopmental disorders, with a particular focus on 1) the new research tools and methods used, 2) discussion of the wider applicability of these new tools and methods across different neurodevelopmental disorders, 3) identifying future challenges or controversies when studying neurodevelopmental disorders using a developmental approach. The seminar series hopes to bring together specialists and established researchers as well as post-graduates, post-doctoral researchers and early career researchers in neurodevelopmental disorders. The series is sponsored by the British Psychological Society and the Williams syndrome Foundation UK and is being organised by Dr Jo van Herwegen, Dr Emily Farran and Dr Debbie Riby.

However, the changes are saved in a separate CEX file and not in the original file. This means I now have duplicate files. Do I just simply change the new file name extension from .cex to .cha (and delete the original)? Or could this process have consequences when it comes to selecting files and carrying out analyses? The changes I wish to make in my corpus are permanent and I do not wish to have different versions of files cluttering up the corpus!

However, the changes are saved in a separate CEX file and not in the original file. This means I now have duplicate files. Do I just simply change the new file name extension from .cex to .cha (and delete the original)? Or could this process have consequences when it comes to selecting files and carrying out analyses? The changes I wish to make in my corpus are permanent and I do not wish to have different versions of files cluttering up the corpus! > > The answer may be a simple one but any help is greatly appreciated. > > Thanks, > > Cathy > > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Info-CHILDES" group. > To post to this group, send email to info-childes at googlegroups.com. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to info-childes+unsubscribe at googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/info-childes?hl=en. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Info-CHILDES" group.

Message-ID: Dear Info-CHILDES, Thanks to the hard work of Joris Gillis and additional moral support from Steven Gillis, there is now a fully functioning mirror of the CHILDES site in Antwerp at http://www.cnts.ua.ac.be/childes/. This site continually mirrors all of the pages of the Pittsburgh site along with all of the transcripts and media. Having this mirror available provides an important backup for the system lest something unforeseen and catastrophic occur in Pittsburgh or even if we just make some silly mistake. Of course, we keep multiple backups of data, but having a complete online mirror provides a very different level of protection. Also, if the Pittsburgh site is occasionally down, people can access the Antwerp site and sometimes it may also prove to be more responsive, depending on network topography. At the moment, all of the pages and transcripts are available. Not all of the media are yet in place, but they will be there soon. I would like to stress that Joris has provided this mirror and the various scripts upon which it depends on a strictly volunteer basis. Many thanks to him for providing this service and to Steven for his moral support. -- Brian MacWhinney, CMU -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Info-CHILDES" group.
