Replication Data for: Morphological variation and development in a Northern Norwegian role play registerhttps://doi.org/10.18710/TU1GSYStrand, Bror-Magnus S.DataverseNO2020-12-192023-09-28T20:27:56ZThe dataset contains: Matrix containing anonymised transcriptions and coding of spontaneous play among 7 children and R scripts used in data manipulation and to fit a binomial mixed effect model.Abstract: This paper investigates the variation in and development of a set of morphological variables in a register known to be used by Norwegian children when engaging in role play. In this register they code-switch to something resembling the standard or Oslo variety for their in-character role utterances. The variation across variables, subjects, and age is demonstrated and discussed, and although most variables are used in the standard variants, their rates vary. A fitted binomial generalised mixed effect analysis on the most frequent variables shows that the rate of standard variants increases significantly as an effect of age.Arts and HumanitiesMorphologyPronounsNounsNominal inflectionVerbsVerbal inflectionNorwegianChild languagePlaySpeech registersEnglishStrand, B.
