Modality exclusivity norms for 336 properties and 411 concepts in Dutch: a replication of English ...

This study is a cross-linguistic, conceptual replication of Lynott and Connell’s (2009, 2013) modality-exclusivity norms. Respondents rated the extent to which they experienced certain properties (below, 'prop') and concepts (conc) in Dutch through the senses of hearing, touch and vision. Mean ratings were computed, with a high interrater reliability and interitem consistency. Besides specific ratings for the auditory (A), haptic (H) and visual (V) modalities, each word also bears a score for modality-exclusivity (EXC)—i.e., the overall perceptual strength—, and a dominant modality (MOD)—i.e.,...

This study is a cross-linguistic, conceptual replication of Lynott and Connell’s (2009, 2013) modality-exclusivity norms. Respondents rated the extent to which they experienced certain properties (below, 'prop') and concepts (conc) in Dutch through the senses of hearing, touch and vision. Mean ratings were computed, with a high interrater reliability and interitem consistency. Besides specific ratings for the auditory (A), haptic (H) and visual (V) modalities, each word also bears a score for modality-exclusivity (EXC)—i.e., the overall perceptual strength—, and a dominant modality (MOD)—i.e., the highest rating. An excerpt is provided below, yet the actual norms contain over 20 variables, including measures of frequency, length, distinctiveness, age of acquisition, and known percentage. For comparison, the English norms were re-analyzed without the olfactory and gustatory modalities where necessary, thus unveiling a broad reproduction of results (see also Louwerse & Connell, 2011). First, dominantly ...
