Abstract
This paper outlines a cognitive map for language attitudes and metalinguistic beliefs about language, grouped together here as “language regard.” After establishing possible input, processing, and response models for such matters, it goes on to examine a number of experimental findings that confirm the interplay between such language regard factors and the more general concerns of sociolinguistics, touching in particular on regard and its explanatory position with regard to variation and change.
