Elicitation Protocol

You can elicit any type of language sample and SALT can be used to analyze it. You can elicit conversations, narratives, expositories, picture descriptions, even written samples. However, if you want to use the reference databases built into the SALT software for comparison, you need to elicit your sample using the same protocol used to elicit the database samples. Those protocols are listed below.
