日本語学習者の学習語彙における意味的透明性の調査 : 2字漢字単語と各構成漢字の意味の結びつきの強さの評定

This study investigates the semantic transparency of two-character kanji words, which beginner-inter mediate level Japanese learners often learn, and provides an index for word classification. The survey was conducted on Japanese university students, who were asked to rate the degree of connection between the meaning of the kanji and the word on a five-point scale. The results proposed an index of semantic transparency between the word and the composing Kanji characters based on the ratings.
