摘要: Forty nonevaluative adverbs and other “quantifiers” belonging to six discrete a priori classes were used as stimuli elicit single free association from each of 78 S s. By using Deese's associative overlap technique, the intersection between every pair was obtained, rectangle coefficients factored rotated several Varimax solutions. The results (a) do not indicate general among quantifiers; (b) support certain “discrepancies” observed in earlier, independent, word-combination studies; (c) demonstrate that degree members adverbial quantifiers is function comparative multiplying values these members.
