Notes

Abstract: Communication is an essential part of life. Every community has a language or communication system. Through their language, people are often identified as members of a distinct culture, or community. It is the purpose of this research to evaluate the communication systems that arise between persons of varying linguistic backgrounds who are placed within a single workplace community. Custodial workers who are of Hispanic descent are the primary population under study. This research project will evaluate how language, identity, and messages aid in the process of community formation.
