4.4. Implications for Experiment 1
The linguistic contexts designed for the pilot study were found to be appropriate for the
children, therefore they were also used in Experiment 1. Regarding the target words, the two
polysyllabic words posed an extra difficulty for the children in comparison with the two
bisyllabic words. Therefore, it was decided to use bisyllabic words only, since those were
the words on which the children demonstrated their best performance . The target word
“feber” (teepee) was used in the main study, since none of the children knew it in the pilot
study. However, the second word “sackets” (sandals) was known by some children, thus, it
was replaced with another one of low frequency.
