Het imperativische participium herbekeken
A new look at the imperative participle This article presents an update of Coussé & Oosterhof (2012), which studies a small group of past participles in Dutch used with an imperative meaning. We revisit in particular the need for abstraction in the constructional schemas developed in the original study. Our analysis explores the role of prototypes and exemplars as an alternative to traditional abstractions in the open slots of constructional sche…
The Final Fight
In literature, obituaries from different cultures and languages have been studied on different levels and from different perspectives. One of the popular research topics is the use of metaphors, since metaphors help to cope with death, which in modern society is still a taboo. This article presents a bottom-up, primarily qualitative analysis of the metaphors in 150 obituaries of sportspeople, published in online versions of newspapers/magazines a…
Register variation and distributional patterns in article omission in Dutch headlines
This paper presents a corpus study of article omission in newspaper headlines. The corpus consists of material from a variety of Dutch and Flemish newspapers. The most important factor influencing the frequency of article omission in headlines is the journalistic genre in which it occurs. The main focus of the study is on the semantic and syntactic distribution of the phenomenon, on the basis of which a case will be made for its description as a …
Fragment answers with infinitives in a Flemish dialect
This paper is devoted to a construction in a specific Flemish dialect, in which infinitives are used in fragment answers in contexts where this would be unacceptable in other varieties. Questions such as Waar is mijn boek? ‘Where is my book?’ can be answered with constructions such as Op tafel liggen ‘lay. INF on the table’. We apply an analysis in terms of ellipsis to these infinitival constructions. However, we find fragment answers with infini…
Reference to hierarchically ordered kinds in Dutch
Legal Aspects of the EU Enlargement Negotiations
The recently concluded enlargement negotiations between the European Union and four applicant countries -Austria, Sweden, Finland and Norway-have so far been the last in a series of intensive negotiating efforts since the conclusion of the Treaty on the European Union (EU), the Agreement on the European Economic Area (EEA), the European Agreements with the Central and Eastern European countries and the conclusion of the Uruguay Round
Equating Alternate Test Forms with a Microcomputer
A FORTRAN program is described which applies linear procedures within four test equating designs. The program is flexible relative to data type and format. The program is usable on many microcomputers and larger systems
Producing more Interpretable Test Analyses and Reports
An item analysis and test report program is described. Focus has been placed on using statistics and descriptors which are more readily conceptualized by classroom teachers. The FORTRAN program is usable on many microcomputers and larger systems. An accompanying tutorial. assists with the interpretation of output
Facilitating Identification of Item Bias Through Use of Delta Plots
A number of statistical procedures are available for detecting bias in individual test items. A supplementary treatment is proposed which helps identify sources of bias affecting groups of items. Although applicable to other statistical procedures, this treatment is illustrated with the transformed item-difficulty method as applied to an evaluation of a test used to help select applicants to be admitted to an aviation training program
