| Abstract | (in Japanese) | (See Japanese page) |
| (in English) | This study is a pilot survey carried out with the goal of building a familiarity database on English “sentence construction” for Japanese EFL learners. For 260 college students in the Kansai region, five argument structures were selected, and for 50 verbs, three sentence types—sentences in the present tense, past tense, and present progressive—were created for each, and the total of 150 sentences were counterbalanced to generate a total of six lists. Participants were then asked to evaluate the degree of familiarity with these sentence constructions on a 7-point scale (7: [Very familiar] to 1: [Never seen before]). As a result, the following was found: the familiarity differs depending on the category of an argument structure, and the familiarity with a verb is not necessarily correlated with the familiarity with its sentence construction; in some sentence constructions, familiarity varies depending on the tense and aspect, whereas in the other sentence constructions, it does not; the evaluation on the familiarity of sentence constructions varies greatly for each participant for some verbs, but not for the other verbs. | |
