As researchers explore the complexity of memory and language hierarchies, the need to expand normed stimulus databases is growing. Therefore, we present 1,808 words, paired with their features and concept-concept information, that were collected using previously established norming methods (McRae, Cree, Seidenberg, & McNorgan Behavior Research Methods 37:547-559, 2005). This database supplements existing stimuli and complements the Semantic Priming Project (Hutchison, Balota, Cortese, Neely, Niemeyer, Bengson, & Cohen-Shikora 2010). The data set includes many types of words (including nouns, verbs, adjectives, etc.), expanding on previous collections of nouns and verbs (Vinson & Vigliocco Journal of Neurolinguistics 15:317-351, 2008). We describe the relation between our and other semantic norms, as well as giving a short review of word-pair norms. The stimuli are provided in conjunction with a searchable Web portal that allows researchers to create a set of experimental stimuli without prior programming knowledge. When researchers use this new database in tandem with previous norming efforts, precise stimuli sets can be created for future research endeavors.
随着研究人员探索记忆和语言层次结构的复杂性，扩大规范刺激数据库的需求日益增长。因此，我们展示了 1808 个单词，以及它们的特征和概念-概念信息，这些单词是使用先前建立的规范方法收集的（McRae、Cree、Seidenberg 和 McNorgan Behavior Research Methods 37：547-559，2005）。这个数据库补充了现有的刺激物，并补充了语义启动项目（Hutchison、Balota、Cortese、Neely、Niemeyer、Bengson 和 Cohen-Shikora 2010）。该数据集包括许多类型的单词（包括名词、动词、形容词等），扩展了以前的名词和动词集合（Vinson 和 Vigliocco Journal of Neurolinguistics 15：317-351，2008）。我们描述了我们的和其他语义规范之间的关系，并对词对规范进行了简短的回顾。这些刺激物与一个可搜索的 Web 门户一起提供，允许研究人员在没有预先编程知识的情况下创建一组实验刺激物。当研究人员将这个新数据库与以前的规范工作结合使用时，可以为未来的研究工作创建精确的刺激物集。
