================================================================

We'd like to remind readers that the responses to queries are usually
best posted to the individual asking the question. That individual is
then strongly encouraged to post a summary to the list. This policy was
instituted to help control the huge volume of mail on LINGUIST; so we
would appreciate your cooperating with it whenever it seems appropriate.

In addition to posting a summary, we'd like to remind people that it
is usually a good idea to personally thank those individuals who have
taken the trouble to respond to the query.

I am performing a survey on judgements concerning elliptical
sentences in English.  I would be very grateful if you would take the
survey, which consists of rating some thirty examples.

To do the survey, you need to give a bit of information about
yourself, including email address, by clicking on this link:

http://www.linguist-grid.org/cgi-bin/grid?view=login

(Click on ''new user'' unless you are already registered with Linguist-GRID.
You should have native or near-native competency in English to take
the test; also, please give information about the dialect of English,
eg. American, British, etc.)

You should be able to click on the link below to do the survey:

http://www.linguist-grid.org/cgi-bin/grid?view=rate+test&test=47

I'm using Linguist-GRID (www.linguist-grid.org) to do this survey.
Linguist-GRID is a tool developed by Matthias Kromann at our
department.  It is a freely available tool for doing linguistic
surveys.  Please let me know if you are interested in using the tool
yourself.

All personal information you enter is kept strictly confidential.  The
results of the survey will be posted on my web page.

Thanks!

I am doing a study on word association.

I am looking more at whether we access different words dependent on whether
we have come into contact with these words in the day or not.

My study will consist of a list of words associated with university life
and half will be done on students and half on non students to see if their
results differ.

Does anyone know of any research done in this field?
