Dialogues between French-Speaking Mothers and Daughters in Two Cultures: France and Quebec.

Bernicot, Josie; And Others

Discourse Processes, v18 n1 p19-34 Jul-Aug 1994

Finds important differences between Quebecois and French mothers: the Quebecois mothers spoke more than French mothers and produced a greater number of assertive and expressive speech acts than the French mothers. Shows that speech used in both of these cultural groups varies according to the mother's child-rearing style, with coercive mothers speaking more than inductive ones. (SR)
