La place de l'adjectif epithete (Position of the Descriptive Adjective).

Jolivet, Remi

Linguistique, v16 n1 p77-103 1980

Describes a set of questionnaires administered to 400 French speakers in France and Switzerland to study variation in the position of the adjective in a noun phrase. The first objective was to separate rigidly structured contexts from those affected by fluctuations, the second was to detect regularities and hesitations in individual behavior. (MES)
