A large Chinese dataset of ten-category semantic relations with developmental performance in children and adolescents.
Article in Scientific data, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Semantic relations are fundamental to human conceptual knowledge and underpin cognitive processes such as categorization, analogical reasoning, and language comprehension. Despite extensive research on semantic relations in English, a systematic Chinese dataset aligned with established taxonomies remains unavailable, limiting cross-linguistic and developmental research. Here, we present a large-scale Chinese semantic relation dataset based on the ten-category taxonomy proposed by Bejar et al., comprising 1,000 typical word pairs that were behaviorally validated. Initially, 3,758 candidate word pairs were generated by 32 college students and subsequently validated via a semantic relation judgment task with 5,898 participants aged 9-18 years. The final dataset includes relation labels, concreteness ratings for 2,295 unique words, and behavioral measures across developmental stages. Developmental analyses revealed significant age-related increases in accuracy for most semantic relations, with performance in most relations approaching a plateau at ages 15-17. This dataset provides validated materials and developmental performance patterns for investigating semantic cognition in Chinese-speaking populations, with applications in cognitive psychology, developmental science, computational linguistics, and natural language processing.
