Abstract
SANHUEZA C, Cristián; FERREIRA C, Anita and SAEZ C, Katia. Desarrollo de la competencia léxica a través de estrategias de aprendizaje de vocabulario en aprendientes* de inglés como lengua extranjera. Lexis [online]. 2018, vol.42, n.2, pp.273-326. ISSN 0254-9239. http://dx.doi.org/10.18800/lexis.201802.002.
This study is circumscribed by the field of applied linguistics and its aim is to determine the effects of learning strategies on the participants’ lexical competence. For this, a quasi-experimental study with pre and post test and the implementation of 6 learning strategies as treatment were designed. Measurements were performed using the Vocabulary Levels Test and the Lexical Frequency Profile. Results showed that the treatment did have a positive effect on the experimental group in all the tests in relation to the control group, being receptive knowledge the one that showed more progress.
Keywords : lexical competence; receptive knowledge; productive knowledge; lexical use.
