Verbal Fluency & BNT
Description
This dataset is a collaborative work for the subject "Psychology of Language" taught at the Complutense University of Madrid, Spain (2020/2021 academic year). The aim is to determine the influence of age, years of education, and gender on two classic language assessment tasks: verbal fluency (COWAT and Isaacs Set-Test) and Boston Naming Test. Also, from the sample data, normative data in young and middle-aged adults can be obtained. For the application of the tests, the conventional instructions have been followed, which can be consulted, for example, in Strauss et al. (2006). In addition to the sociodemographic variables above mentioned, the following cognitive parameters are also included in the dataset: -Number of items correctly evoked in period 1-15" for each phonetic and semantic category. -Number of items correctly evoked in the period 16-30" for each phonetic and semantic category. -Number of items correctly evoked in the period 31-45" for each phonetic and semantic category Number of items correctly evoked in the period 45-60" for each phonetic and semantic category -Number of items correctly evoked in the period 45-60" for each phonetic and semantic category -Total number of items correctly evoked 1-60" (sum of the above) for each phonetic and semantic category. -Total number of intrusions for each phonetic and semantic category -Total number of perseverations for each phonetic and semantic category -Total number of spontaneous hits in the BNT -Total number of hits after semantic clue in the BNT -Total number of hits after phonological clue in the BNT -Total number of hits after semantic clue in the BNT (sum of spontaneous hits + hits after semantic clue)
