Concreteness and Emotional Valence Ratings of 399 Dutch Nouns
This paper presents norms for concreteness and emotional valence of 200 monosyllabic and 199 three-syllabic nouns. Both sets of words were comparable in lexical familiarity. Each word was rated for both characteristics by at least 145 raters. Test-retest and inter-rater reliability proved high for both concreteness and emotional valence ratings.
