Education, Attitudes, and Language of Higher Education: Francophone Students in Northern Ontario.
Wilkinson, Derek
Canadian Journal of Higher Education, v24 n1 p30-47 1994
A study of 1,586 francophone students in northern Ontario (Canada) found 3 attitudes (either believing French unimportant, believing English practically dominant, or believing their French inadequate) lead students to continue postsecondary education in English. Believing French pleasurable was found to be positively related to continuing education in French. (Author/MSE)
