APPENDIX C STROKE COUNT SURVEY A survey presented to 20 students and 30 native Japanese showed that of the 13 "Kyouiku" kanji presented, students managed to give the correct stroke count 5% of the time, while native Japanese gave the correct stroke count 70% of the time. The mean error rate for Japanese was found to be + 1. 7 strokes, whereas students' mean error rate was 1 5.3 strokes. These results indicate that the concept of "stroke count" is a very dubious key for locating kanji or radicals. REFERENCES Boff, K., Kaufman, L., and Thomas, J. (1986).
