Snow, Marguerite Ann; And Others
Applied Linguistics, v9 n2 p182-97 Jun 1988
Study of the second language retention of students who completed a seven-year elementary Spanish immersion program found that some language loss occurred soon after program termination, with greatest loss in productive skills. Findings suggested that attitudinal predisposition influenced the extent to which students retained their Spanish skills. (Author/CB)
