Abstract

Abstract Drawing on data collected via a web-based survey, this study investigates the attitudes of SFL (Spanish as a Foreign Language) learners in Portugal towards four Spanish varieties. A verbal guise experiment was designed to collect students’ perceptions of language variation. The sample comprised 196 undergraduate students from the School of Arts and Humanities of the University of Lisbon (Portugal). The results show that Portuguese students of SFL have a clear preference for the Castilian variety, as it obtained the highest rates in all domains (power, personal qualities, and status). Unexpectedly, factors such as participants’ age or sex did not influence the answers given.

对西班牙语变体的态度。以西班牙语为外语的葡萄牙学生的研究
摘要本研究通过网络调查收集数据,调查了葡萄牙SFL(作为外语的西班牙语)学习者对四种西班牙语的态度。设计了一个语言伪装实验来收集学生对语言变化的感知。样本包括来自葡萄牙里斯本大学艺术与人文学院的196名本科生。结果显示,SFL的葡萄牙学生对卡斯蒂利亚人有明显的偏好,因为它在所有领域(权力、个人品质和地位)中获得了最高的比例。出乎意料的是,参与者的年龄或性别等因素对给出的答案没有影响。
