摘要:
英语专业学生具有汉英双重文化身份,将成为进行跨文化交际、互通中外文化的桥梁,了解其对汉英两种文化的认同程度十分必要。本文以社会心理模型和生产性双语现象理论为基础,采用定量和定性的方式,即问卷调查和访谈相结合的研究方法,进行文化认同现状的实证研究,本研究选取了161名英语专业大学生为调查对象,了解他们学习英语专业后文化认同变化情况以及对汉英两种文化的认同程度。研究结果表明,近半数英语专业学生在学习本专业后发生“附加性变化”和“生产性变化”,少部分学生发生“削减性变化”和“分裂性变化”,学生对汉语文化认同程度明显高于英语文化认同;学生的文化认同程度不存在性别差异;学生的英语水平与某些维度的文化认同程度呈正相关。本研究为培养英语专业学生跨文化交际能力提供了启示,可帮助学生更好地平衡汉英两种文化的心理地位,在增进中华文化自信的同时,积极传播海外优秀文化。English majors have a dual cultural identity of Chinese and English, which will be a bridge for intercultural communication and interoperability between Chinese and foreign cultures. It is necessary to understand their degree of identification with both Chinese and English cultures. Based on the social psychological model and the theory of productive bilingualism phenomenon, this paper adopts quantitative and qualitative methods, i.e., a combination of questionnaires and interviews, to carry out an empirical study of the current situation of cultural identity. 161 English majors were participated in this study to find out the changes in their cultural identity and the degree of their identification with the two cultures of Chinese and English after they studied English majors. The results of the study show that nearly half of the English majors experienced “additive change” and “productive change” after studying English major, while a small number of them experienced “subtractive change” and “divisive change”. The degree of students’ cultural identity in Chinese is significantly higher than that in English. This study provides insights for the development of intercultural communication skills of English majors, which can help students better balance the psychological status of the two cultures, Chinese and English, and actively spread the outstanding overseas culture while promoting Chinese cultural confidence.
