    UC Berkeley NCRCDSLL Research Reports Title Moving In and Out of Bilingualism: Investigating Native Language Maintenance and Shift in Mexican-Descent Children Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/78p4t7hk Author Pease-Alvarez, Lucinda Publication Date 1993 eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California NATIONAL CENTER FOR RESEARCH ON CULTURAL DIVERSITY AND SECOND LANGUAGE LEARNING RESEARCH REPORT: 6 MOVING IN AND OUT OF BILINGUALISM: INVESTIGATING NATIVE LANGUAGE MAINTENANCE AND SHIFT IN MEXICAN-DESCENT CHILDREN LUCINDA PEASE-ALVAREZ UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, SANTA CRUZ 1993 ABSTRACT Recent research has emphasized the economic, social, and cognitive advantages available to bilinguals. Yet for many immigrant groups, bilingualism is a temporary phenomenon. Most immigrant children arrive in the United States as monolingual speakers of their native language, develop bilingualism as they acquire English, establish English-speaking households, and raise their children as English-speaking monolinguals. According to survey data, even Spanish, a language thought to be particularly enduring in the United States, seldom lasts beyond the second or third generation. Despite evidence that shift toward English is occurring for many immigrant groups, most researchers have neglected to focus on the different levels at which shift occurs, the factors that influence its development, and the course it takes during individuals’ lifetimes. In an effort to address these concerns, this paper reports on research that investigates native language maintenance and shift to English among 64 Mexican-descent children and their families. Although the participants in the study live in the same suburban community, they have different immigration backgrounds (Mexican-born, U.S.-born of Mexican-born parents, U.S.-born of parents who were also born in the United States.) Data sources referred to here include a variety of interviews and activities used to investigate the participants’ language proficiency, attitudes, and choices.

  • CMS.603 / CMS.995 American Soap Operas Spring 2008
    MIT OpenCourseWare http://ocw.mit.edu CMS.603 / CMS.995 American Soap Operas Spring 2008 For information about citing these materials or our Terms of Use, visit: http://ocw.mit.edu/terms. SOAP OPERAS AND TEEN DRAMAS KATHARINE CHU 1. Introduction Since soap operas peaked in popularity in the eighties, there has been a steady decline in ratings. While there are many reasons and possibilities as to why soap operas have dramatically dropped in popularity and while many scholars attribute soap opera decline in the mid-nineties to the OJ Simpson trial, soap operas ratings took another hit in the late nineties (Ford, As the World Turns in a Convergence Culture, 43). There are many possibilities for this decline; for the purposes for this paper, I would like to closely examine one of the reasons that may have caused the decline of the U.S. soap opera is the rise of the teen drama. Soaps have often had an unproportionally large teenage fan base. In the mid-1990s over 17% of soap fans were between 18-24 years olds, even though this demographic is only around 13% of the general population (Liccardo, Who Really Watches the Daytime Soap? ). According to books like Harrington and Bielby’s Soap Fans, when soap opera fans are asked when they started watching soap operas, many of them responded that they became hooked as teenagers and have been following characters ever since on their favorite soaps (10). This did not resonate with me because, as a teenager in the late nineties, I did not watch soap operas, nor did any of my friends.
