Gramatyczne, semantyczne i afektywne cechy fluencji słownej: jakie czynniki determinują ich wykonanie?
Grammatical, semantic and affective characteristics of verbal fluency: what factors determine their performance?

Summary/Abstract: The studies included 302 polish participants. There were used 7 verbal fluency tasks (categories: animals, vehicles, words beginning with the letter K, letter F, words from categories joy, fear, and verbs corresponding to a question “what man does?”, namely verbal fluency). The aim of the analysis was to identify factors that determine the ability of finding words in accordance with the criteria. The significant predictors of the numbers of words given in accordance with the requirements were variables such as age, duration of education, level of language skills/semantic memory and working memory, as well as affective states and traits. Analysis of different characteristics of the tasks (grammatical, semantic, affective) indicates that their performance is determined by the interaction of similar factors, except for affective factors.
