This study investigates how multiple social meanings come to be associated with a linguistic variable. The analyses of listeners' perceptions of tap and retroflex realizations of coda /r/ in Sao Paulo Portuguese (as in jornal `newspaper' and bazar `bazar'), through an experiment based on the matched-guise technique (LAMBERT et al., 1960; CAMPBELL-KIBLER, 2006, 2009) applied to 185 participants, show that coda /r/ in Sao Paulo is strongly associated to geographical identities, from which further inferences arise on speakers' social status regarding their social class, area of residence, level of education, along with personal traits such as being ``articulate{''} and ``hardworking.{''} Interactions between variable /r/ and participants' social profiles are explored, as well as the fact that certain plausible correlations do not arise, particularly in comparison to previous perception studies. In problematizing the nature of the ideological inter-relations among multiple factual and potential social meanings, an objective and falsifiable computational method for modeling indexical fields is proposed, based on Minimum Spanning Trees (GOWER; ROSS, 1969).
