Appendix 1: Starting Points for Deletion of Cloze Tests
(from Kobayashi, 1995, p. 436)| The following tables are examples of the results of one of the cloze test analyses. They show the ratio of content/function words in the 25 cloze items and further details about content word items, i.e. the number of content word items which appear elsewhere in the text and the number of content word items which appear only once in the text when the starting point for deletion changes from the 15th to 27th word from the beginning of the text. On the basis of this analysis, the starting point for deletion was chosen for each text so that the eight texts were as comparable as possible in the nature of cloze items. The starting point chosen is marked with '*'. |
