Volume 71, number 4 complete issue. First edition. The analysis of variance via regression analysis permits investigators to go far beyond the interaction between linguistic context and a single demographic factor, the level of prior sociolinguistic description and prediction of phonological realizations. The differential use of a value in Puerto Rican Spanish (SpC-O) is predicted best on the basis of speech context. Nevertheless, the addition of several demographic variables (age, education, birthplace) plus the interaction between one of them and speech context significantly improves the prediction of SpC-O (R = 0.602). Efforts to explain and predict a value in Puerto Rican English (EH-2) benefit most from the cumulative use of several demographic variables. After such variables have been utilized to the point where the incremental contribution of yet others would no longer be significant, the introduction of another linguistic variable (UH-3) raises the cumulative prediction of EH-2 to previously unattained heights (R = 0.890). Condition: Spine and edges sunned, light edge wear, corners bumped, rubbed and creased else very good.
