摘要

这项定性的、探索性的研究定位于家庭语言政策(FLP)领域。该研究以双语马耳他语为背景，探讨了多语家庭语言课程对讲英语的马耳他家庭中语言意识形态的影响。在为期四周的时间里，四个这样的家庭跟进了该计划，在此期间，通过参与者每周在半结构化家庭语言期刊上的记录收集数据。在方案完成后，为了三角测量的目的，通过一次性、半结构化的家庭焦点小组访谈收集了第二组数据。研究结果强调了语言意识形态在宏观、中观和微观层面上的相互关联问题，通过假设家庭语言计划有可能促进意识形态转变，以支持遗产语言的参与、传播和维护，从而为现有研究做出贡献。

Prompting heritage-language engagement in English-speaking Maltese families, via a family language programme intervention

This qualitative, exploratory research study is positioned within the field of Family Language Policy (FLP). Contextualised in bilingual Malta, where Maltese is the majority language, the study inquires into the effects of a plurilingual family language programme on the language ideologies within English-speaking Maltese families. The programme was followed by four such families over a four-week period, during which data were collected via the participants’ weekly entries into semi-structured family language journals. Upon the programme’s completion, a second set of data was collected via one-off, semi-structured, family focus group interviews, for the purpose of triangulation. The findings highlight interrelated issues across the macro, meso and micro levels of language ideology, contributing to existing research by postulating the potential of a family language programme to prompt ideological shifts in support of heritage-language engagement, transmission and maintenance.
