The Neighbors Coltheart table

The Neighbors Coltheart table lists all types from Types together with their orthographic neighbors according to the definition by Coltheart et al. (1977).

Neighbors according to this definition are all types of the same length which differ exactly at one character position from the reference type. Neither insertion nor deletion are allowed.

Example: Hans has higher frequency Coltheart neighbors Haus and Hand, and less frequent Coltheart neighbors Hals, Hang, Gans, Haas (proper name) and more.

For the number of orthographic neighbors of a type, and their cumulative frequency, please refer to the Types table.

The Neighbors Coltheart table offers the following filters or variables for output:

• Type
• Type frequency
• Neighbor Coltheart
• Frequency of neighbor
• HF neighbor y/n
