Diferencias léxicas entre los bilingües precoces en relación con el tiempo de reacción

Abstract

The purpose of this work is to verify the use of the lexicon of the informants, according to the language of reproduction, counting the reaction time from the visualization of the stimulus and the corresponding lexical emission. For this, the data of the lexical emission of 40 students of the Faculty of Education of Bilbao have been obtained carrying out the same methodology in both languages. A questionnaire of 34 entries was used through a sequence of slides. The analysis of the data was carried out using three objective quantitative methods of conglomeration: (1) hierarchical method, (2) medium K method and (3) average C algorithm based on fuzzy C-means, FCM). Among the results, we find certain convergences regarding the number of groups created in both languages in the hierarchical method and the average K. However, the totality of the words in the two groups do not coincide. And with regards to the FCM, we can observe differences in the transition words.
