    El presente trabajo pretendió explorar el papel no ortogonal de los factores que condicionan la expresión de los sujetos pronominales en español, al emplear análisis cuantitativos de entrevistas, sistematizadas por tabulación cruzada y árboles de inferencia condicional, con el fin de explorar dichos efectos de interacción. Este estudio revela que varios factores conjuntamente restringen el uso de SPE y que la gramática variable de los SPE es más compleja de lo que se ha observado, con meros efectos principales en la bibliografía sociolingüística.

    This research project sought to explore the non-orthogonal role of the factors that condition the use of pronominal subjects in Spanish (SPE) through a quantitative analysis of interviews, systematized by cross tabulation and trees of conditional inference, in order to explore such interaction effects. This study reveals that several factors together restrict the use of SPE and that the variable grammar of PSS is more complex than observed, with only mere effects in sociolinguistic literature.
