Article Synopsis
- Self-evaluations of language proficiency among bilingual adults can be influenced by their attitudes or "solidarity" towards the languages they speak.
- French-L1 speakers may underestimate their English abilities when they have a positive attitude towards English, while English-L1 speakers tend to have a more accurate understanding of their French skills if they also have a favorable attitude towards the language.
- Overall, self-assessments focused on language usage are more accurate and less affected by personal attitudes compared to more subjective, value-based evaluations of language ability.
