Abstract

Our aim is to present a new statistical index for lexical studies. The lexical centrality index (LCI) stems from a constructive historical-critical revision of the Hispanic lexico-statistical tradition, centering especially on the nature of the lexical availability index which, when it appeared, served as a complement to the lexical frequency index. The revision goes back to the origins of traditional pan-Hispanic lexical projects, whose relevance is well known in the field of lexico-statistics. The LCI has possible applications which continue in this tradition and which open up ways of studying that complement those used in previous projects.
