Ninety-three Japanese college students were tested productively on three aspects of word knowledge: meaning senses, paradigmatic and syntagmatic (collocational) knowledge for each of 30 target words (10 words each for noun, verb and adjective), together with vocabulary size and proficiency tests. The results show that syntagmatic links are stronger than the paradigmatic ones in their lexical networks for both the upper and lower groups of vocabulary size and proficiency. However, paradigmatic networks as well as syntagmatic ones tend to expand as their vocabulary size grows. The vocabulary size seems to play an important role in network building. It is also suggested that the productive test devised in this study may be a useful measure for exploring lexical networks.
