Table 2.

Word characteristics for stimuli used in each experiment split by frequency category. Frequency per million for words in English and Spanish were obtained from the SUBTLEX-US and SUBTLEX-ESP databases, respectively (Brysbaert et al., 2009; Cuetos et al., 2011). Although comparison of English and Spanish frequency values must be interpreted with caution; there were no significant differences between high-frequency words (p = 0.91) or medium-frequency (p = 0.11) in the two languages.
