New Spanish semantic feature production norms for older adults.

Abstract

Semantic feature production norms are a useful tool for researchers to have empirically collected data about the semantic representations of a particular population. As older adults have been shown to have certain differences in their semantic knowledge organization in comparison with younger adults, it is relevant for them to have their own normative data. Thus we present here the first Spanish semantic feature production norms for older adults. They contain information about the feature composition of 400 concrete concepts. We also provide information about some feature and concept variables as well as comparisons between young and old adults on these variables.
