SIBAS 鈥� Russian regional associative database (2008-2012), part of the nationwide project of the Institute of Linguistics (on cooperation with the Institute of Philology, SB RAS and NSU) aiming to create a new Russian associative thesaurus.
Project objectives:
- to create a unified Russian associative database, and three autonomous regional databases;
- to register linguistic consciousness in time, and to define the dynamic parameters of the semantic structure of ethnic consciousness;
- to identify regional specificity of a linguistic consciousness;
- to identify the active associative grammar, allowing to define relevant semantic links, corresponding to the life experience of modern Russian speakers.
The SIBAS data was collected in the course of the mass free-association experiment conducted during 2008-2013 in the largest cities of Siberia and the Far East.
