Giving and Taking Directions.
Sigelman, Carol K.
Designed (1) to determine both the communication barriers arising among high school students of divergent subcultural backgrounds, and how low socioeconomic status black and middle socioeconomic status white listeners evaluate members of their own and different subculture groups as well as speakers of Network English as persons and (2) to examine communication barriers, this test consists of four maps. Each map contains two sets of directions--one set produced by a black dialect speaker and read by a black dialect speaker and a Network English speaker, and one set produced by a Standard English speaker and read by a Standard English speaker and a Network English speaker. [This document is one of those reviewed in The Research Instruments Project (TRIP) monograph "Measures for Research and Evaluation in the English Language Arts" to be published by the Committee on Research of the National Council of Teachers of English in cooperation with the ERIC Clearinghouse on Reading and Communication Skills. A TRIP review which precedes the document lists its category (Listening), title, author, date, and age range (secondary), and describes the instrument's purpose and physical characteristics.] (JM)
