Year: 2020
Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: Aragón is one of the plurilingual regions of Spain. Unlike other regions of the State, in Aragón, the protection of the minority languages has a short trajectory. This protection has been intensified since 2015, when the first regional institution in charge of language planning was created. Furthermore, 2018 marks the 20th aniversary of the introduction of Aragonese language in some schools of Huesca province. Nevertheless, there is still few scientific data about the situation and prospects of this minoritized language in the educational area. Our research is focused on the main factors that determine the attitudes towards Aragonese among the families of primary education children. The results show a neutral attitude with a positive trend towards Aragonese. Moreover, the significant influence of some factors like the provenance and the previous contact with Aragonese or other minority languages has been noted
