TCBLex - A lexical database of Finnish literary texts for children.
Article in Behavior research methods, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
This work introduces TCBLex, a lexical database of Finnish literary works read by children between the ages of 7 and 15. We explain in detail the work done to build the corpus TCBLex is based on, including how books were sampled and collected, turned into text files, and finally processed. We also touch on legal considerations and how it is possible to build such a corpus in the EU. TCBLex contains over 11 million tokens that are annotated with parts-of-speech tags and lemmatized. We provide 14 different sub-lexicons in total, covering individual intended reading ages, age groups, as well as different genres. We also provide versions with additional morphological information, such as the cases and tenses of words. TCBLex provides various psycholinguistically interesting lexical statistics for both word types and lemmas, such as different frequency metrics, distributions, word lengths, numbers of syllables, morphological paradigm sizes, and for the first time in a Finnish lexicon, ages when words and lemmas are first encountered in books. TCBLex is freely available at https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.15655580 .
