World Knowledge Ratings by Respondents for Phase 2

The 99 respondents in this study rated 55 restatements according to six different criteria. One of those criteria concerned the degree of world knowledge (background information) needed to understand a sentence. Respondents rated 55 restatements in terms of a 5-point scale in which "5" denoted sentences in which a high degree of background information was needed, and "1" sentences in which a low degree of background information was needed. Respondents had the option of not rating items they felt uncertain of. Moreover, if a respondent wasn't present for this phase of the study, a "no response" rating was recorded.
