Iconicity ratings for 14,000+ English words

This repository contains all the main scripts and data that are needed to reproduce the analysis that we report for the iconicity ratings.

For all analyses using our iconicity ratings, we recommend using the iconicity_ratings_cleaned.csv file in the ratings folder. This contains the files that are processed.

The main script folder contains the following files:

• processing_raw_ratings.Rmd : takes the combined_byWord_and_subject_anonymized.csv file, applies exclusion criteria and aggregates the data to yield the cleaned file, which is the main iconicity ratings file that will be used for all analyses iconicity_ratings.csv

• bayesian_models.Rmd : takes iconicity_ratings.csv and performs a series of analysis, specifically correlations with other lexical measures from published studies that are in the additional_data folder

• bayesian_models.Rmd : posterior predictive checks for all models that will be saved in the folder pp_checks

• substantive_analysis.Rmd : the main analysis script that reproduces all the main results reported and creates plots (this script loads in the models created by bayesian_models.Rmd)

• calculate_ICCs.Rmd : inter-rater reliability measures added after review
