Methodologies for Medical Computing. Date Bases and Management Database Management: SLIPS: A Database System for Computer Storage and Analysis of Phonological Errors

摘要

The analysis of phonological errors made by normal individuals (slips of the tongue) and brain damaged patients (paraphasias) is a challenging problem. SLIPS is an experimental database system for computer storage and analysis of such errors. This paper introduces SLIPS, and describes its main features. Some of the problems that arise in analyzing phonological error data are explained, and examples of their solution are presented.
