Una aplicación del matched-guise para el estudio de actitudes en lenguas en contacto de la península de Yucatán: maya, español e inglés en contextos urbanos

Abstract

Previous studies of language attitudes in the Yucatan peninsula have addressed mainly the Mayan language, but none has been conducted that consider Spanish or English, nor using the matched-guise technique. Consequently, this instrument was used in the present article to study the attitudes towards Mayan, Spanish, and English in three urban contexts in the region. The findings are expected to be useful in areas such as language policy and planning, as well as in education.
