   В статье в рамках проекта по созданию базы данных словаря рейтингов абстрактных и конкретных слов исследуется вопрос о методологии проведения опросов для оценки слов на степень конкретности / абстрактности, а именно вопрос об использовании инструкций, которые предлагаются респондентам перед прохождением опроса. Учитывается опыт проведения подобных опросов при создании словарей рейтингов абстрактности / конкретности, которые были созданы для английского, нидерландского, немецкого и других языков. Отдельно рассматриваются особенности лексико-грамматических разрядов конкретных и абстрактных существительных русского языка, которые могут повлиять на структуру самого словаря и на характер инструкций. В работе описывается эксперимент, который был проведен среди двух групп респондентов, одна из которых перед прохождением опроса получила подробные инструкции с указанием критериев разграничения абстрактных и конкретных слов, другая – сокращенные инструкции с указанием правил прохождения опроса. Корреляционный анализ полученных результатов позволяет делать выводы о влиянии инструкций на оценки слов разных разрядов. Так, обнаруживаются отличия между оценками абстрактных существительных. В работе приводится анализ семантики данных единиц, рассматриваются случаи возможной конкретизации.

   This article studies the methodology for conducting a survey, the main purpose of which is creating a database of “concreteness” / “abstractness” ranking. It focuses on using detailed instructions that are offered to respondents before taking the survey. In dealing with the topic, the experience of creating a similar database for various languages (English, Dutch, German and other languages) is taken into account, a special reference is made to the features of the “concreteness” / “abstractness” categories of Russian words that can affect the database structure and the nature of these instructions. The article analyzes the structure of instructions that are used to create abstractness ratings, it also describes the instruction that is used in surveys to build a rating of abstract words, taking into account the peculiarities of the Russian language. The paper describes an experiment that was conducted among two groups of respondents, one of which, before taking the survey, received detailed instructions indicating the criteria for distinguishing between abstract and concrete words; the other received abbreviated instructions indicating the rules for passing the survey. A correlation analysis of the results obtained leads to conclusions about the influence of instructions on the assessments of words of different categories. Thus, the differences between the evaluations of abstract nouns are discovered. The paper analyzes the semantics of these units and considers cases of possible concretization.
