significantly better than the Ostensive definition group (Wilcoxon: Z=2.7, p<.05). During
post test 3, the Definition group performed significantly better than the Control (Wilcoxon:
Z=3.2, p<.005) the Phonological control(Wilcoxon: Z=3.03, p<.005) and the Ostensive
definition group (Wilcoxon: Z=2.8, p<.005). The Lexical contrast group performed
significantly better than the Control group (Wilcoxon: Z=2.1, p<.05). Diagram 7.2 presents
the significant differences between the groups.
