THE IMPORTANCE OF WORD ASSOCIATION IN EVALUATING LEXICAL PROFICIENCY IN PRIMARY SCHOOL STUDENTS

This article examines the role of word association in assessing lexical competence in primary school pupils. Lexical competence, which reflects a learner’s ability to understand and use vocabulary, is crucial in language learning. Word association tests are effective tools for evaluating this skill, as they reveal how children connect words in their mental lexicon. The article reviews relevant research, discusses the theoretical foundations of word association, and highlights its value as a diagnostic tool in education.
