Abstract
In this experiment a table of meaningfulness (m) was derived for 120 nouns. Noble's production method was used. Data were taken from a randomly selected sample of 135 9-year-old children who were attending school in Victoria, B.C., Canada. Range of meaningfulness was 8.41-.41 with a median of 4.25 and a mean of 4.29. A sample of 204 randomly selected Ss attending school in an adjacent school district was used as a cross-validation group. A correlation coefficient (Pearson product-moment) of .92 was obtained between two measures of meaningfulness for each of 48 selected nouns.
