I administered the Word Associates Test (WAT; Read, 2004) to measure depth of word knowledge. Based on participants' scores on the WAT, they were divided into three proficiency groups: high proficiency (HP), intermediate…

Semantic similarity refers to antonyms and synonyms, while visual similarity…

Thirty Dutch-speaking upper-intermediate learners of…
