Description

Hungarian word association network. The network was collected from the word association database ConnectYourMind, which collected associations online between 2008 and 2014, primarily in Hungarian. The network has 24580 nodes and 72709 links, where nodes represent words. A directed link from node A to B indicates, that word B was given as a response to word A in a free association task. The links are weighted according to the number of instances where the specific response was given. More details about the construction of the database can be found in English in (Kovacs et al., 2021) and exhaustively in Hungarian in (Kovacs, 2013). The network is shared in edgelist format. Each row has three values A;B;C. Each row indicates a directed link from node/word A to node/word B with a weight of C. The file uses utf encoding to represent Hungarian characters.
