Abstracts

EN

The present text is focused on the pilot data collection which is the first part of the research on language acquisition in children. This acquisition research is aimed especially at semantic feature production and the acquisition of depth of meaning. The goal of the research is to collect a substantial amount of data to create a battery of semantic features in children. This battery is to become a tool for examining children’s vocabulary. The test group consists of children aged eight to nine. In a pilot data collection, children’s preferences for linear or nonlinear record of semantic features were tested. The second form (which is nonlinear and requires children to write semantic features in columns) is widely used in both Czech and foreign research environments. Three approaches to the data collection were tested. For the purpose of our research, some specific code rules were devised and designed to register the semantic information obtained. Some statistical calculations were made as well, which allows to create a notion about feature representations and also about relations between features and concepts.
