• The Development of Complexity, Accuracy, and Fluency in Second Language Performance: A Longitudinal Study (2017, methodology): “D was chosen for its ability to reliably compare texts of different lengths, even relatively short texts (Durán et al. 2004), and it has been shown to be a useful measure for L2 data (TreffersDaller 2009; Yu 2010).”
• Lexical Diversity in Writing and Speaking Task Performances (2010, background): “For example, Duran et al. (2004) analyzed the Ds of texts from various resources (from children to adults, from foreign/second language learners to academic writers, from normally developing children to those with specific language impairment) and found that D is indicative of the developmental tr”
• Linguistic Features Identify Alzheimer’s Disease in Narrative Speech (2015, unknown): “Type-token ratio (TTR) is widely reported, but has also been criticized for its dependence on text length [56, 57].”
• Back to Basics: How Measures of Lexical Diversity Can Help Discriminate between CEFR Levels (2016, background): “As Durán et al. (2004) have shown, different lemmatization principles result in different LD scores, and there are significant differences between LD scores for text that have been lemmatized and those that have not been lemmatized (Treffers-Daller 2013).”
