Subclaims¶

q2 i? Mean verb latency was longer than mean noun latency, which the authors attribute to the dynamic scenes used for verb trials. → Koenig Ashley 2020 q2 i? Noun and verb latencies were moderately correlated, r(124) = 0.43. → Koenig Ashley 2020 (2)

Evidence¶

Koenig Ashley 2020¶

Koenig Ashley, Arunachalam Sudha, Saudino Kimberly J. (2020). Lexical processing of nouns and verbs at 36 months of age predicts concurrent and later vocabulary and school readiness.

q2 · i? · associational · r2

Descriptive comparison in the Results: 'mean verb latency was longer than mean noun latency', which the authors attribute to verb trials including dynamic scenes, citing Valleau et al. (2018).

"Not surprisingly given that verb trials included dynamic scenes, mean verb latency was longer than mean noun latency (e.g., Valleau et al., 2018)"

Correlation computed in the Results across the sample's task data: 'Noun and verb latencies were moderately correlated (r(124) = 0.43, p < .0001)', with descriptive statistics reported in Table 1.

"Noun and verb latencies were moderately correlated (r(124) = 0.43, p < .0001). See Table 1 for descriptive statistics for the lexical processing task and standardized assessment measures."

Discussion¶

Related Claims¶

• Lexical processing latency at 36 months does not predict concurrent grammatical complexity (LDS average length of phrase) — related
• Overall lexical processing latency at 36 months predicts receptive vocabulary at 60 months, but not over and above concurrent vocabulary — related
• Lexical processing latency at 36 months predicts school readiness (BSRA) at 60 months for overall and noun-trial latency, but not verb-trial latency — related
• Lexical processing speed at 36 months is associated with concurrent receptive vocabulary, but more weakly than at younger ages — related
