Distinctive collocate/collexeme analysis for: DITRANSITIVE vs. PREP_DATIVE

obs.freq.1: observed frequency of the word A-? in/with DITRANSITIVE
obs.freq.2: observed frequency of the word A-? in/with PREP_DATIVE
exp.freq.1: expected frequency of the word A-? in/with DITRANSITIVE
exp.freq.2: expected frequency of the word A-? in/with PREP_DATIVE
pref.occur: the word/construction to which the word A-? is attracted
delta.p.constr1.cues.word: delta p: how much does the first construction cue the word?
delta.p.word.cues.constr1: delta p: how much does the word cue the first construction?
coll.strength: index of distinctive collostructional strength:-log10(Fisher-Yates exact, one-tailed), the higher, the more distinctive

If your collostruction strength is based on p-values, it can be interpreted as follows:
Coll.strength>3 => p<0.001; coll.strength>2 => p<0.01; coll.strength>1.30103 => p<0.05.
Out of the 40 investigated, 40 collocates/collexemes are shared by both words/constructions; i.e. 100%


I'd be happy if you provided me with feedback and acknowledged the use of Coll.analysis 3.5.
