Does the children ,s prior knowledge of the lexical items influence performance on the
contrast task ?
Figure 7.29 shows that the children provided the same number of contrasts for both the
partially represented and the unknown words. Statistical analysis revealed no significant
differences.

Is the provision of contrasts influenced by the semantic domain of the lexical items?
Figure 7.30 shows that the provision of appropriate contrasts did not differ by the semantic
