“…The findings would be even more interesting if we were to consider word frequency as an indicator of text difficulty. As Hashimoto (2021) and Stewart et al (2021) discussed, there was a really strong relationship between word frequency rank and word difficulty. Therefore, it could be said that English newspapers from certain countries may pose greater or lesser challenges to certain English learners.…”

“…En referencia a la prueba SVLT-A, se observó que el promedio general disminuyó según avanzaba el nivel, con excepción de los niveles 3 000 y 2 000. Este último con una cantidad mayor de cognados, lo cual contrasta con la idea de que a mayor cantidad de cognados el valor se ve beneficiado al "ser palabras que son más fáciles de reconocer para el participante" (Hashimoto, 2021). Los resultados discrepan de los presentados por Allen (2019b), quien al usar la prueba SVLT para determinar el impacto de los cognados en una prueba de conocimiento de léxico receptivo observó un efecto facilitador de frecuencia de cognados en la selección de la respuesta correcta y el rechazo de los elementos distractores.…”

“…Hashimoto's rationale was that such correction is not essential when the item, as opposed to the person, is of interest. Nevertheless, Hashimoto (2021) and the earlier original study still included pseudowords, and our instrument followed this approach to informally gauge for problematic participants with an inordinate frequency of FAs, which was capped at 10% (Schmitt et al., 2011). Seventy‐two COCA‐derived pseudowords were randomly selected from the pseudoword list in Hashimoto (2016) for inclusion in the AWL‐based yes–no instrument, which achieved the conventional 60:40 ratio between real and pseudowords (Hashimoto & Egbert, 2019).…”
