This contribution aims at presenting a computer manual for coding questions called Si.Co.D. (standing for “Sistema di Codifica delle Domande”, that is Coding System of Questions). The software presents a set of related coding systems that identify questions on the basis of their openness/closeness, threatening, confusing formulation and intonation. The software has the characteristics of interactivity and multimediality, in order to facilitate and help observers’ training for coding questions. It is composed of two sections: one dealing with flow chart and definitions of questions categories, the other one presenting some examples of questions. Peculiarity and advantages of the tool are described, also comparing it with other annotation and sound management software. Possible applications are discussed. Its usefulness is showed by some research applications.

Abstract
This contribution aims at presenting a computer manual for coding questions called Si.Co.D. (standing for “Sistema di Codifica delle Domande”, that is Coding System of Questions). The software presents a set of related coding systems that identify questions on the basis of their openness/closeness, threatening, confusing formulation and intonation. The software has the characteristics of interactivity and multimediality, in order to facilitate and help observers’ training for coding questions. It is composed of two sections: one dealing with flow chart and definitions of questions categories, the other one presenting some examples of questions. Peculiarity and advantages of the tool are described, also comparing it with other annotation and sound management software. Possible applications are discussed. Its usefulness is showed by some research applications.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
