Chapter 1 the study of collocations

 Type 
24. 
SV(O) wh-word - Results of the Kruskal-Wallis test for 
numbers of tokens of SV (O) wh-word collocations used in the subjects' essays 
show a significant main effect for the factor Group (Kruskal-Wallis c
2
 (2, N = 
275) = 8.585, p = .0137).  The table of means, Table 25, shows that subjects in 
Group 2 produced more tokens of this type of collocation than subjects in 
Group 3, who used more tokens of this type of collocation than subjects in 
Group 1.  The results of the post-hoc Dunn's multiple comparisons procedure 
show significant differences in numbers of tokens of this type used only 
between Groups 1 and 2, but not between Groups 2 and 3, or Groups 1 and 3 
(see Table 24).
