Semantic properties of word associations to Italian verbs
This work is concerned with an investigation of verb associations, i.e., the words spontaneously called to mind in response to a given stimulus verb. We performed an elicitation task where native speakers were asked to spontaneously list semantic associations for a list of Italian verbs. Starting from the assumption that the associations reflect highly salient linguistic and conceptual features...
متن کاملNetwork Analysis of Korean Word Associations
Korean Word Associations (KorWA) were collected to build a semantic network for the Korean language. A graphic representation approach of applying coefficients to complex networks allows us to discern the semantic structures within words. A semantic network of the KorWA was found to exhibit the scalefree property in its degree distribution. The growth of the network around hub words was also co...
متن کاملWord associations are formed incidentally during sentential semantic integration.
Sentential context facilitates the incidental formation of word associations (e.g., Prior, A., & Bentin, S. (2003). Incidental formation of episodic associations: the importance of sentential context. Memory and Cognition, 31(2), 306-316). The present study explored the mechanism of this effect. In two experiments, unrelated word pairs were embedded in coherent or semantically anomalous sentenc...
متن کاملHierarchical Structure in Semantic Networks of Japanese Word Associations
This paper reports on the application of network analysis approaches to investigate the characteristics of graph representations of Japanese word associations. Two semantic networks are constructed from two separate Japanese word association databases. The basic statistical features of the networks indicate that they have scale-free and smallworld properties and that they exhibit hierarchical o...
متن کاملIdentifying Semantic Relations and Functional Properties of Human Verb Associations
This paper uses human verb associations as the basis for an investigation of verb properties, focusing on semantic verb relations and prominent nominal features. First, the lexical semantic taxonymy GermaNet is checked on the types of classic semantic relations in our data; verbverb pairs not covered by GermaNet can help to detect missing links in the taxonomy, and provide a useful basis for de...
