Abstract

This study aims to show the readability limits of the B and C language level Italian texts, which can be used for the reading assessment and the characteristics they depend on. For this purpose, 184 Italian texts used in the certification exams of the KPG system were analysed in an attempt to reveal the main traits (quantitative, lexical and syntactic) of the texts defining their readability and their correlation with the language level for which they are intended. The correlation analysis indicated that cognitive characteristics are more important than quantitative characteristics, while a high correlation of lexical variables with B1 and B2 levels and syntactic variables with C1 and C2 levels emerged.

阅读技能中意大利语文本难度与语言水平的关系
本研究旨在揭示B、C语言水平意大利语文本可用于阅读评估的可读性限制及其所依赖的特征。为此目的,对KPG系统认证考试中使用的184个意大利语文本进行了分析,试图揭示文本的主要特征(数量、词汇和句法),确定其可读性及其与所针对语言水平的相关性。相关分析表明,认知特征比数量特征更重要,词汇变量与B1、B2水平、句法变量与C1、C2水平呈现高度相关。
