Assessing Phraseological Development in Word Sequences of Variable Lengths in Second Language Texts Using Directional Association Measures

Abstract: This study evaluated second language (L2) phraseological development using a directional association measure (delta P) that assesses the directional formulaicity of recurrent multiword combinations. The study examined (a) whether learners develop their sensitivity to the distributional properties of recurrent multiword combinations as their proficiency grows and (b) how this development is mediated by the directionality of lexical associations and combination length. The formulaicity of recurrent multiword com… Show more

“…Within this latter approach, Evert (2008) distinguished surface, textual, and syntactic cooccurrences. Although surface co-occurrence has no requirement for the cooccurring words beyond meeting frequency and/or association thresholds of co-occurrence (see also Bestgen & Granger, 2014;Chen, 2019;Gablasova et al, 2017), the other two types of co-occurrences also have textual structure or syntactic relationship requirements for the co-occurrences. With the advent of dependency grammar, researchers have used dependency parsers (e.g., Kyle, 2016;Paquot, 2019) or corpora annotated with dependency relations (e.g., Jiang, Bi, & Liu, 2019) to identify and/or analyze phraseological units, including syntactic co-occurrences.…”
