Wharry, Cheryl
Bilingual Research Journal, v17 n3-4 p117-33 Sum-Fall 1993
A survey of 21 Hispanic, 22 Native American, and 10 Vietnamese American college students found that adoption or maintenance of ancestral language was related to attitudes toward ancestral language, beliefs about parental attitudes, and integrative motivation (toward family and ancestral ethnic group). There were significant differences by gender and ethnic group. Includes survey questions. (SV)
