Resumen

La complejidad lingüística es un tema de gran interés para los estudiosos del lenguaje, investigadores de inteligencia artificial, educadores y editores. Este artículo presenta el estado del arte sobre este tema.  Se buscó la información en cinco bases de datos y se usó la metodología propuesta por Petticrew y Roberts (2008).  Los resultados muestran cuatro hallazgos principales: 1) los estudios son básicamente de corte aplicado; 2) hay tres tendencias de investigación relacionadas con este tema: a) estudios que miden el desarrollo de la complejidad en distintas poblaciones, b) investigaciones que miden el efecto de la complejidad en los procesos de comprensión y producción de textos, c) trabajos sobre la dificultad de procesamiento de ciertas estructuras. 3) la complejidad lingüística se ha medido esencialmente con criterios sintácticos y léxicos. 4)  Lo que hace que un texto sea más complejo que otro, se relaciona con factores como cantidad, familiaridad y género textual.

Keywords

linguistic complexity; textual difficult; development of complexity; complex structures.complejidad lingüística; dificultad textual; desarrollo de la complejidad; estructuras complejas.
