Communication Apprehension among Black Students on Predominantly White Campuses.
Byrd, Marquita L.; Sims, Anntarie L.
Western Journal of Black Studies, v11 n3 p105-10 Fall 1987
A study of 114 Black undergraduates in two predominantly White midwestern universities demonstrates that communication apprehension (CA) among Blacks appears to be an audience-based phenomenon. Black females scored lower than Black males on the Personal Report of Communication Apprehension-24 (PRCA-24). The higher the CA score, the higher the self-reported Grade Point Average. (BJV)
