This study investigated the attitudes of particular learners of English toward different target-language varieties. The purpose was to ascertain the perceived suitability of three lects of English as a model for studying English as a second language (ESL). The views held by Chinese ESL students of several national backgrounds toward speakers of British, Texan, and a more general American English were measured via a matched guise procedure and a direct questionnaire.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a This study investigated the attitudes of particular learners of English toward different target-language varieties. The purpose was to ascertain the perceived suitability of three lects of English as a model for studying English as a second language (ESL). The views held by Chinese ESL students of several national backgrounds toward speakers of British, Texan, and a more general American English were measured via a matched guise procedure and a direct questionnaire.
520 $a The findings indicated that those Chinese students from a British background were more accurate in identifying the lects of the speakers than were the students from the other backgrounds. Those from a British background, however, did not appear to most strongly favor the language of the British speakers. Rather, the majority of the students, regardless of background, showed a preference for American English, and a prejudice against Texan English.
