Description

This database is an almost-complete  (and otherwise, slightly expanded) copy of the entire EsPal database --- specifically, the subtitle tokens sub-database.


NEW DATA: In addition to the data included in the original EsPal database, this version also contains the following information:

  • posBi: summed length-specific type positional bigram frequency, calculated for (and relative to) all single-word entries with a summed film frequency greater than 1.
  • legalBi: Flag indicating if each string only contianed legal bigrams.  
  • posUni: same as for posBi, above, only for unigrams / individual letters.
  • legalUni: same as for legalBi, above, only for unigrams / individual letters.
  • coltNOrth: the number of orthographic neighbours (Coltheart's N) calculated for (and relative to) all single-word entries with a summed film frequency greater than 1.  
  • OrthNeighbours: pipe ("|") delimited list of all of the orthographic neighbours.  
  • coltNPhon: same as coltNOrth only calculated for the phonological representation of the word.
  • PhonNeighbours: same as OrthNeighbours, above, only for phonology.  
  • NphonOnsetNeighbour: Number of phonological neighbours per Coltheart's N, but restricted to the first phoneme.
  • phonOnsetNeighbours: list of onset neighbours (see above)
  • NphonOffsetNeighbours: same as for NphonOnsetNeighbours, only for the last phoneme in the word.
  • NphonOffsetNeighbours: same as for phonOnsetNeighbours, only for neighbours sharing the last phoneme.
  • Same as for phonNeighbours, but only neighbours that share the same phoneme are counted

MISSING DATA: The only data not included in this file pertain to some less commonly-used variables such as bisyllable frequencies, orthographic trigram frequencies, and detailed lemma information.
