Hi Folks,

Psycholinguistics is moving on from min'F now -- see the 2008 special issue of Journal of Memory and Language on emerging data analysis techniques: (http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/journal/0749596X/59)


The Jaeger (2008) paper provides a good example of logit mixed models using (categorical) acquisition data.

I think the argument is that one should do both because your words are sampled from the population of words just as your subjects are sampled from the population of people. I believe--and this is a long term memory experiment for me--the original reference is Herb Clark 1973.

We would like to organize our data by trial (rather than subject) as this gives us much greater power and also allows us to ask about relations within the data on a trial by trial basis. I seem to recall an older paper on doing something like this: transposing data to treat words as subjects.
