This book offers a systematic analysis of a wide range of questions
used in censuses, national surveys and international surveys to
measure language proficiency. It addresses the urgent need in
language related survey research for a comprehensive examination of
the large existing body of survey data in order to provide a fuller
understanding of the extent to which survey results are shaped by
the way language proficiency questions are worded. While census and
survey language proficiency data are extensively used in a wide
range of research areas, as well as in forming, implementing and
monitoring government policies, there are as yet no universally
accepted survey measures of language proficiency. This book will
therefore provide a valuable resource for students and scholars
working in sociological areas that use census or survey language
data, such as sociology of language, sociology of education,
politics, racial and ethnic studies, and cultural studies; as well
as for policy analysts.
