At least some of the papers I'm an author on measuring English VOT (Stuart-Smith et al. Labphon; Sonderegger et al Language x2) are large corpus studies that consider stress. Not word position, iirc.

I sympathize with the problem, though, and have seen people in this situation just exclude all words with frequency < some_constant, which seems worse.

So there'd be a pseudo-word called "low_frequency_word"? I think I wouldn't do this, because it loses a lot of information... but I'm not sure what harm it'd do, if any. Probably affect the random-effect variance estimate and thus maybe SEs for word-level predictors? Curious what you find.

could you add me? Thanks for doing this!

not sure if you're doing Bayesian or frequentist models, but I've also used the neutralization dataset for different topics in Bayesian models here (feel free to take anything) people.linguistics.mcgill.ca/~morgan/ling... "smallest effect size of interest" connects nicely to ROPE

Morgan Sonderegger @msonderegger.bsky.social · 22/11/2024

I like your incomplete neutralization dataset! There are extensive exercises with it in my book. The 'english' and 'french_cdi' (word learning) datasets there, are also simple and intuitive, I've used them in data science courses.

Ooh, agree. There's a section on this in my book -- random intercepts for "nuisance variables" with many levels. Shamelessly mentioning in case it helps more than 2 people read it...

You can kind of do this using webR "Line-by-line Execution": quarto-webr.thecoatlessprofessor.com/qwebr-code-c... not exactly what you're saying, but close?
