We reinvestigate K Ã Λð1116Þ photoproduction off the nucleon target, based on an effective Lagrangian approach. We include higher nucleon resonances such as Nð2000Þ5=2 þ , Nð2060Þ5=2 − , Nð2120Þ3=2 − , and Nð2190Þ7=2 − , of which the data are taken from the 2012 edition of Review of Particle Physics, in addition to the t-channel diagrams (K, K Ã , and κ), the s-channel nucleon, and u-channel hyperon (Λ, Σ, and Σ Ã ) contributions. We find that the Nð2120Þ3=2 − and Nð2190Þ7=2 − resonances are essential in describing the new CLAS Collaboration data for charged K Ã photoproduction. On the other hand, they rarely affect neutral K Ã photoproduction.
