Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This study investigates Oklahomans’ attitudes towards English language varieties in their own state. It combines the methods of perceptual dialectology, by looking at the labels that respondents used in a typical map-drawing task, with those of a content-analysis on post-task interviews. Examination of the map-drawing data told us that there were three distinct areas in this group of respondents’ mental maps, namely the “southeast” part, the “western” part, and the “southern” part of Oklahoma. By using content analysis on the immediate follow-up map drawing discussion, the three areas in respondents’ mental maps and their dialectological profile were reconstructed. The current study also looked into how such common dialectological labels as “southern”, “country”, “drawl” and “twang”, were used to describe the English variation in Oklahoma by the target group of respondents.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
