Word frequency effects and intelligence testing
Participants completed two near identical reasoning tests in different orders. One completed the Baddeley (1968) verbal reasoning test which had the words ‘precede’ or ‘does not precede’ on half the items while the other substituted this for ‘comes before’ or ‘does not come before’, a version used by Hartley and Holt (1971). Word frequency tables suggests the second version would be easier than...
متن کاملTest-Expectancy and Word-Frequency Effects in Recall and Recognition
To determine if people who expect a recall (RCL) test encode a list of to-beremembered (TBR) words differently than those who expect a recognition (RON) test, people were first induced to expect a RCL or a RON test and then were asked to remember a critical list consisting of both high-frequency (HF) and low-frequency (LF) words. Following presentation of the critical list, different groups rec...
متن کاملFrequency and Contextual Diversity Effects in Cross-Situational Word Learning
Prior research has shown that people can use the cooccurrence statistics of words and referents in ambiguous situations to learn word meanings during a brief training period. The present studies investigate the effects of allowing some words and referents to appear more often than others, as is true in real learning environments. More frequent wordreferent pairs are often—but not always—learned...
متن کاملEffects of Speaking Rate and Word Frequency on Conversational Pronunciations
The possible set of pronunciations in continuous speech corpora change dynamically with many factors. Two variables , speaking rate and word predictability, seemed to be promising candidates for integration into dynamic ASR pronunciation models; however, our initial eeorts to incorporate these factors into phone-level decision tree models met with limited success. In this paper, we connrm the i...
متن کاملPredicting and postdicting the effects of word frequency on memory.
In the experiments reported here, I replicate and extend recent results that reveal that judgments about the memorability of common and uncommon words differ qualitatively depending on whether they are made during study or elicited during a recognition test (Guttentag & Carroll, 1998). When assessing recognition ability for individual words, subjects predict superior performance for common word...
