Introducing and Evaluating a Measure of Lexical Diversity Across Word Classes

TESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Lexical diversity (LD) has been shown to be a strong predictor of second language (L2) proficiency. However, most current indices combine all word classes into a single measure and thus only capture the broadest patterns of lexical variation.
