สรุป	The verbal-guise technique is the naturalistic cousin of the matched-guise technique for measuring language attitudes. Instead of one bidialectal speaker producing every variety, different speakers each produce a single variety, and listeners rate each speaker on personality and status trait scales. This solves the matched-guise problem of finding speakers who can authentically and equivalently perform two or more varieties, and it uses genuine native voices for each variety — but at the cost of reintroducing speaker-to-speaker differences as a potential confound. It remains a core instrument in the speaker-evaluation paradigm for studying covert attitudes toward accents, dialects, and languages.	The discourse completion task (DCT) is an elicitation instrument widely used in pragmatics to gather data on how people perform speech acts such as requests, apologies, refusals, and compliments. Respondents read short descriptions of situations and write (or say) what they would utter in each, allowing researchers to collect comparable speech-act data across many speakers, languages, and cultures under controlled conditions. It was popularized by the Cross-Cultural Speech Act Realization Project (CCSARP) of Blum-Kulka, House, and Kasper in 1989.
