Test Data from a Study on Latin Vocabulary Acquisition (Ovid)

The dataset contains test results from an intervention study with intermediate learners in two high schools in Berlin (2018-2019). In total, 60 students participated in three groups (= classes). The intervention materials and tests are published as well. A key question of the still ongoing research project is: How can vocabulary competence in a historical language such as Latin be acquired and deepened by using corpus-based, i.e. context-based, methods? This question is based on a broad understanding of vocabulary that refers back to theories of the mental lexicon.本数据集收录了2018至2019年柏林两所高中针对中级学习者开展的干预性研究的测试结果。共计60名学生参与了三个组别（即班级）的实验。本研究的干预材料与测试题亦已公开发布。该仍在进行中的研究项目的核心问题为：借助基于语料库（corpus-based），即基于语境（context-based）的方法，应当如何习得并深化拉丁语这类历史语言的词汇能力？此问题基于对词汇的广义认知，其理论溯源可至心理词典（mental lexicon）相关学说。
