Hi Michael,
<div class="">You could also look at Amalia Skilton’s work, including her recent PhD thesis: 'Spatial and non-spatial deixis in Cushillococha Ticuna’.</div>
<div class="">She developed some excellent methodology for exploring parameters like visibility, among others. </div>
<div class="">All best,</div>
<div class="">Pattie</div>

<div dir="ltr" class="">Dear all,

</div>
<div class="">my students are going to do a field study to collect basic information on the use of three deictic pronouns in Rutul, Lezgic, East Caucasian; and would like to ask for advice. This is a system of three demonstratives, but we are not sure whether
this is a person- or distance-oriented system or something else. None of them speaks the language (while they have a fairly good understanding of Rutul grammatical system). The corpus is by far not big enough to provide evidence (as is probably often the case
with demonstratives). Grammaticality and appropriateness judgments in artificial settings are not consistent. </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Can you indicate successful field / experimental studies that deal with this and are specific about their protocol and experiment design? Among other options, we were considering using David P. Wilkins
<a href="http://fieldmanuals.mpi.nl/download/1999_The_1999_demonstrative_questionnaire_this_that.pdf" class="">
questionnaire</a>, but it does not provide guidelines on best practices of how to apply it (apparently, that was the author's intention). We have some ideas, but wanted to ask - and discuss these ideas - with anyone who has experience in using this or another
questionnaire on deictic pronouns. We would also be grateful for additional references in the literature.</div>

<div class="">You may as well reply to my personal email, with copies to the students (in the copy above),</div>
