Does the children ,s prior knowledge of the lexical items influence the provision ofperceptual
justifications?
As the figure 7.20 below shows, the provision of “perceptual” justifications did not differ
by the children’s prior knowledge of the lexical items. Statistical analysis revealed no
significant differences.

Is the provision ofperceptual justifications influenced by the semantic domain of the lexical
items?
Figure 7.21 shows that the children provided more “perceptual” justifications for the words
describing animals than for the words describing artifacts.
