Hello everybody,
I'm writing my master's thesis using the Sketch Engine. When writing the chapter which is supposed to present the features of the corpus manager, I came across the following problem. In the Sketch Engine documentation ("statistics used..."), you explain that the statistics offered under the "COLLOCATIONS" function are T-score, MI, MI3, log likelihood, min. sensitivity, MI-log-prod (formerly "salience") and Dice but the Dice is not listed in the collocation form. I do not necessarily need it personally (my focus is on specific concordances and collocations, I use MI/ T-score) but my supervisor asked me to make sure that I do not forget to mention any relevant statistics in the corresponding chapter of my study. The question is: Is the Dice only used for word sketches or also for collocations? Sorry for bothering you with that somewhat personal problem and thanks in advance,
Anne
