No. of bitstreams: 1 arquivototal.pdf: 2631545 bytes, checksum: 64cfa03c29bf54d5263588db6eee617c (MD5) Previous issue date: 2016-11-14 / This thesis analyzes the social and stylistic variation of the side net /ʎ/ and /l/ the Portuguese of Brazil, as in the realizations of /ʎ / ~ [l, j, Ø] and those of / l / ~ [w, j, Ø, ł], and at the same time, examines the aspects of evaluation, attitude and language perception linked to them. The examined speaking community is the city of Jacaraú in Paraíba state, located in the middle region of Paraibana Forest, northern coastline of Paraiba. The theoretical contributions that underlie the analysis come from the Sociolinguistics Quantitative Labovian inspiration (Labov, 1963, 1966, 2008 [1972], 2001) and research of Campbell-Kibler (2006) and Clopper & Pisoni (2005), addressing language issues highlighting the cognitive ability of speakers / listeners to indicate with some precision, sociodialetais differences and, in Garrett contributions, Coupland & Williams (2003), Oppenheim (1982), Sarnoff (1970) and Bisinoto (2000) that show the procedural aspect and sociolinguistic related to attitudes and language assessment. Thus, it was been a socially stratified corpus of spoken language of 36 (thirty six) informants speaking community searched; Also, these sociolinguistic interviews were described and specifically analyzed the Language Module, checking how the speakers surveyed assess their own speech and that of others, and later in the same community, an evaluation instrument was-applied, attitude and language perception. In this sense, we tried to study the phenomena described herein considering the objective dimension, by taking the linguistic fact itself - /ʎ/ and /l/ and its linguistic variants, as well as the subjective dimension, considering the speaker - its characteristics sociocultural and subjective correlates. In general, quantitative analysis demonstrated that the use of side segments /ʎ/ and /l/, besides constituting a social process variation, too, are stylistic phenomena, but of different nature which is led hence perform the evaluation test, attitude and language perception involving only /ʎ/ and its variant forms. With regard to the Language Module analysis of the findings, it could be verified that the results point to the central role of informers in the processes discussed here, revealing aspects of the evaluative dimensions, representing, attitudinal and social significance; and finally, regarding the results arising from the application of the instrument, especially from subjective reactions collected, have resulted in two sociodialetais usage patterns: marked socially x not socially marked and indicated by different linguistic variants, respectively, represented by [l, j, Ø] to the Northeast / rural and [ʎ] related to the Northeast / urban; and also made it possible to propose a gradational scale of acceptance (EGA, see Figure 7); also suggest that the use of /ʎ/ and its variants are independent of the informant and sex were assessed as speakers 'polite', now they were associated with talking friendly, confident, family; now, however, as the linguistic forms of low social prestige, were linked to professionals who do several handy works and recognized for use in the context of minor stylistic monitoring, while [ʎ] was related to the status of speakers, for example, engineers and teachers, for use in more formal situations. About age, these variants were perceived as both youth and adults, and the experiment recorded on the one hand, very high rejection rates the forms [l, j, Ø], which ranged from 81% to 93% of rejection and, on the other hand, indicated positive results about the use of [ʎ]: 79% approval. / Esta tese analisa a variação social e estilística das líquidas laterais /ʎ/ e /l/ do português do Brasil, como nas realizações de /ʎ/ ~ [l, j, Ø] e nas de /l/ ~ [w, j, Ø, ł] e, ao mesmo tempo, examina os aspectos da avaliação, atitude e percepção linguísticas vinculadas a elas. A comunidade de fala examinada é a cidade de Jacaraú/PB, localizada na mesorregião da Mata Paraibana, litoral norte da Paraíba. As contribuições teóricas que fundamentam a análise provêm da Sociolinguística Quantitativa de inspiração laboviana (LABOV, 1963, 1966, 2008 [1972], 2001) e nas pesquisas de Campbell-Kibler (2006) e Clopper & Pisoni (2005), que abordam questões linguísticas evidenciando a capacidade cognitiva dos falantes/ouvintes de indicar, com certa precisão, diferenças sociodialetais e, nas contribuições de Garrett, Coupland & Williams (2003), Oppenheim (1982), Sarnoff (1970) e Bisinoto (2000) que evidenciam o aspecto processual e sociolinguístico relacionados às atitudes e à avaliação linguística. Para tanto, foi constituído um corpus estratificado socialmente de língua falada de 36 (trinta e seis) informantes da comunidade de fala pesquisada; também, dessas entrevistas sociolinguísticas foram descritas e analisadas especificamente o Módulo Linguagem, verificando como os falantes pesquisados avaliam sua própria fala e a de 1outrem e, posteriormente, na mesma comunidade, foi-se aplicado um instrumento de avaliação, atitude e percepção linguísticas. Neste sentido, procurou-se estudar os fenômenos aqui descritos considerando a dimensão objetiva, ao se tomar o fato linguístico propriamente dito - /ʎ/ e /l/ e suas variantes linguísticas, quanto também a dimensão subjetiva, ao considerar o falante – suas características socioculturais e correlatos subjetivos. De modo geral, a análise quantitativa demonstrou que o uso dos segmentos laterais /ʎ/ e /l/, além de constituírem um processo de variação social, também, são fenômenos estilísticos, mas de natureza diferentes o que levou-se, consequentemente, a realizar o teste de avaliação, atitude e percepção linguísticas apenas envolvendo /ʎ/ e suas formas variantes. No que diz respeito aos achados da análise do Módulo Linguagem, pôde-se verificar que os resultados assinalam o papel central dos informantes nos processos aqui discutidos, revelando aspectos relacionados às dimensões avaliativas, representativas, atitudinais e de significado social; e, finalmente, com relação aos resultados oriundos da aplicação do instrumento, sobretudo, a partir das reações subjetivas coletadas, permitiram chegar a dois padrões sociodialetais de uso: marcado socialmente x não marcado socialmente e sinalizados por variantes linguísticas distintas, respectivamente, representados por [l, j, Ø] indicando o Nordeste/rural e [ʎ] relacionada ao Nordeste/urbano; e ainda, possibilitaram propor uma escala gradacional de aceitação (EGA, cf. a Figura 7); também, sugerem que o uso de /ʎ/ e suas variantes independem do sexo do informante e foram avaliadas como de falantes ‘educados’, ora foram associadas ao falar amigável, confiante, familiar; ora, porém, quanto às formas linguísticas de baixo prestígio social, foram vinculadas aos profissionais braçais e reconhecidas para uso em contexto de menor monitoração estilística, enquanto que [ʎ] foi relacionada aos falantes de status, como por exemplos, engenheiros e professores e, para uso em situações de maior formalidade. E quanto à faixa etária, essas variantes foram percebidas simultaneamente como de jovens e adultos e, o experimento registou, de um lado, altíssimas taxas de rejeição às formas [l, j, Ø], as quais variaram de 81% a 93% de rejeição e, por outro lado, indicou índices positivos quanto ao uso de [ʎ]: com 79% de aprovação.

The attention will be particularly focused on the collection of information based on influences of the evaluation and its individual forms and types on the child. In the empirical part the combination of quantitative and qualitative methods will be utilized. In the quantitative part of the research, questionnaires for elementary schools teachers, for pupils of the primary school grade 2 to 5 and the parents of those pupils will be used. The questions will be focused on their attitude to the different forms of the school evaluation - what they are mainly afraid of, what they prefer, what attitude they have to self-evaluation, how they are influenced by the different forms of evaluation. In some detailed dialogues with pupils, their parents and their teacher I will examine the way of evaluation of pupils in the elementary school and to what degree their...
