Typical items and their production frequencies in English and in Spanish

Spanish–English bilingual child and adult participants in the study were asked to generate as many words as they could for the given categories, first in one language and then in the other. First, the data obtained from 20 adult participants were analyzed to obtain the typical items. The production frequency of each item was calculated as the number of participants out of 20 who had generated that item for the respective category. Next, the five items from each category that had the highest production frequency were tabulated and identified as typical items. The list of 35 typical items in English and Spanish, with their production frequencies, are presented here.

本研究招募了西班牙语-英语双语儿童与成人被试，要求其针对指定类别尽可能多地生成词汇，实验流程为先使用一种语言完成任务，再切换至另一种语言。首先，研究人员对20名成人被试的实验数据进行分析，以确定典型项目（typical items）。每个项目的产出频率（production frequency）以20名被试中为对应类别生成该项目的人数进行计算。随后，研究人员将每个类别中产出频率最高的5个项目整理制表，并将其界定为典型项目。本文呈现了英语与西班牙语各35个典型项目的列表，及其对应的产出频率。
