Sociopsychological predictors of students’ willingness to communicate in their L1
This study investigated Anglophone African higher education students’ willingness to communicate in their native language(s) (L1). It primarily looked at how sociopsychological variables (including extraversion, eurocentrism, intergroup attitudes, and intellectual identity) influence students’ desire to initiate a conversation in their L1 in a given communicative context. Through a cross-sectional survey design, data were drawn from 667 students …
Exploring Ghanaian language teachers’ use of multiple intelligences strategies in their teaching
Multiple intelligences-based strategies have been shown to enhance student engagement, address diverse learning needs and improve academic performance. This study examined how Ghanaian language teachers apply multiple intelligences (MI) strategies in their instructional practices. A sequential explanatory design was adopted, using purposive sampling to involve 262 Akan language teachers from basic schools. The findings revealed a discrepancy betw…
The moderating effect of linguistic insecurity on the relationship between students’ L1 attitude and their language shift tendencies
The predominant theoretical discourse on language attitude and shift dynamics is that individuals with favourable attitude towards their first language (L1) demonstrate less likelihood of speaking a second language (L2) (usually a prestigious language) in both formal and informal communicative domains. A flip side of this scholarly argument is that a positive L1 attitude contributes to L1 maintenance. However, the role of linguistic insecurity (r…
Modelling Bilinguals’ Language Shift Intentions
The goal of this study was to create a theoretical framework (the ‘Context-Dependent Theory of Language Shift’) that explains how school-related linguistic practices and ideologies influence students’ language shift intentions in varying communicative domains. Data obtained from 560 high school students in Cape Coast, Ghana were analysed using partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) to test the proposed theoretical framework…
