In particular, we examine and compare the maximum derivational networks, saturation values, consistency of derivations at the language level and at the genera level, correlations between saturation values and the paradigmatic capacity, maximum and average numbers of orders of derivation, numbers of derivatives, correlations between semantic categories and orders of derivation, semantic categories with blocking effects, typical combinations of semantic categories, multiple occurrences of semantic categories, reversibility of semantic categories and the reasons for structurally poor derivational networks. The data are evaluated in terms of word-classes and orders of derivation, with a special focus on the role of genera and/or families, morphological types and the nature of the word-formation systems of individual languages. It is hypothesized that each of these five factors has an impact on (the possibility of) the generalization of our data.}, organization = {This article has been supported by the Spanish State Research Agency (SRA, Ministry of Economy and Enterprise) and European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) (Ref.
