The investigation pursued (i) the pedagogical impact of the provided treatments (ii) the psycholinguistic importance of the issue of L1 lexicalization. The results of the independentt-test indicated a significant difference between the two groups dealing with both sets of words.

However, no significant difference was found with respect to the gain scores in the non-interventionist group.
