520 $a The purpose of this study was to determine whether cultural schemata had an effect on Chinese ESL students' writing in both overall quality and quantity of content. Additionally, the study also investigated whether the different competency levels of Chinese ESL students were influenced by cultural schemata or not.
520 $a A total of sixty writing samples, thirty about native cultures and thirty about foreign cultures, were gleaned from two groups of college students: fifteen less-competent Chinese ESL students in Taiwan and fifteen competent Chinese ESL students in the United States. In the analysis of writing samples, two instruments were applied. The quality of writing used an analytical scoring technique based on the ESL Composition Profile developed by Jacobs et al. (1981). The quantity of writing was identified both through Bovair and Kieras' (1985) criteria for number of propositions per composition and through frequency count on written words per composition. The inter-rater reliability was fairly high, ranging from .886 to .870 for quality scoring and from .999 to 1.000 for proposition scoring.
520 $a Based on the ESL Composition Profile the Chinese ESL students received more credit for mechanics than content, organization, vocabulary, or language use. Therefore, the primary concern in developing the Chinese ESL students' writing ability should not be based on mechanics, but on content, organization, vocabulary, and language use.
520 $a Based on results of paired sample t tests, the Chinese ESL students were affected by cultural schemata, both in quality and quantity of writing. Specifically, both groups of Chinese ESL students performed higher quality on writing and wrote more words per composition about native cultures than about foreign cultures. But, an unexpected finding for less-competent Chinese ESL students in Taiwan existed when they wrote more propositions per composition about foreign cultures while competent Chinese ESL students in the United States wrote more propositions about native cultures. Perhaps this was because less-competent Chinese ESL students in Taiwan felt the longer essay, the better.
