This database’s special feature quantifies the correspondence between the vocabulary list (more than 9,000 words) of the Japanese-Language Proficiency Test and the Kyōiku kanji. As an example of the effective uses of this database for students, a kanji data book for Japanese language learners was created, which has been available to students at Geneva University since Autumn 2020. In this data book, depending on the level of deviation values, 1-star to 5-star notations were used to prioritize the memorization of kanji.}, pages = {1--27}, title = {A study of the renewed Kyōiku kanji :An attempt to quantify the relative importance of 1,026 kanji using Japanese-Language Proficiency Test (JLPT) levels}, year = {2021} }
