elicitation (n.)

A term used in linguistics and phonetics to refer to the method of obtaining reliable linguistic data from speakers (informants) – either actual utterances, or judgements about utterances (e.g. their acceptability). Several ingenious elicitation techniques have been suggested to obtain (elicit) this information in an indirect and unselfconscious way, e.g. asking informants to perform linguistic tasks which, though apparently irrelevant to the purpose at hand, will bring to light features of direct interest to the analyst.
