This article describes a Windows program that enables users to obtain a broad range of statistics concerning the properties of word and nonword stimuli in Spanish, including word frequency, syllable frequency, bigram and biphone frequency, orthographic similarity, orthographic and phonological structure, concreteness, familiarity, imageability, valence, arousal, and age-of-acquisition measures. It is designed for use by researchers in psycholinguistics, particularly those concerned with recognition of isolated words. The program computes measures of orthographic similarity online, with respect to either a default vocabulary of 31,491 Spanish words or a vocabulary specified by the user. In addition to providing standard orthographic and phonological neighborhood measures, the program can be used to obtain information about other forms of orthographic similarity, such as transposed-letter similarity and embedded-word similarity. It is available, free of charge, from the following Web site: www.maccs.mq.edu.au/-colin/B-Pal.
本文介绍了一个Windows程序，该程序能让用户获取有关西班牙语单词和非单词刺激属性的广泛统计数据，包括词频、音节频率、双字母组和双音素频率、正字法相似度、正字法和语音结构、具体性、熟悉度、可想象性、效价、唤醒度以及习得年龄指标。它是为心理语言学研究人员设计的，特别是那些关注孤立单词识别的研究人员。该程序会根据31491个西班牙语单词的默认词汇表或用户指定的词汇表在线计算正字法相似度指标。除了提供标准的正字法和语音邻域指标外，该程序还可用于获取有关其他正字法相似度形式的信息，如换位字母相似度和嵌入词相似度。可从以下网站免费获取：www.maccs.mq.edu.au/-colin/B-Pal 。
