摘要

尽管威尔士语是强制性的学校教学，并且有很强的文化激励来学习这种语言，但最近的英国人口普查显示，说威尔士语的人数呈下降趋势。外显语言习得动机的不对称被英语在媒体中的主导地位所抵消。这种优势是通过将英语使用者之间的时间依赖性连通性和传染性引入适应性流行病学模型来建模的。预计到2050年，也就是威尔士议会宣布的100万威尔士语使用者的语言规划目标日期。

Media pressures on Welsh language preservation

ABSTRACT Despite compulsory school instruction in the Welsh language and strong cultural incentives to acquire the language, the most recent UK Census showed a downward trend in the number of speakers. The asymmetry in explicit language acquisition incentives is here considered to be offset by the media dominance of the English language. This dominance is modeled by the introduction of time-dependent connectivity and infectivity among English speakers into an adapted epidemiological model. Extrapolations up to 2050 are made, this being the announced date of a Welsh Assembly language-planning target of one million Welsh speakers.

期刊介绍： The goal of the Journal of Mathematical Sociology is to publish models and mathematical techniques that would likely be useful to professional sociologists. The Journal also welcomes papers of mutual interest to social scientists and other social and behavioral scientists, as well as papers by non-social scientists that may encourage fruitful connections between sociology and other disciplines. Reviews of new or developing areas of mathematics and mathematical modeling that may have significant applications in sociology will also be considered. The Journal of Mathematical Sociology is published in association with the International Network for Social Network Analysis, the Japanese Association for Mathematical Sociology, the Mathematical Sociology Section of the American Sociological Association, and the Methodology Section of the American Sociological Association.
