Dr. Roceric conducted research between 1975 to 1981. She interviewed more than 240 Americans of Romanian descent in communities including Detroit, Michigan; Cleveland, Ohio; New York, New York; and South St. Paul and St. Paul, Minnesota. Roceric documents her research process, gives examples of responses to questions during her interviews, discusses language use and preservation among different groups of immigrants (1st generation, 2nd, etc.) and concludes that Romanian-Americans maintain their ethnic language for reasons related to pride and identity. Her questionnaire and a Selected Bibliography are included.

This is a study of the self-maintenance efforts, rationales, and accomplishments of non-English speaking immigrants on American shores. It is not a study of the assimilation of American immigrants and of the resultant formation of the supra-ethnic American nation. The two processes--de-ethnization and Americanization, opposite cultural-linguistic self-maintenance--are equally ubiquitous throughout all of American history. As a nation we have paid infinitely more attention to the Americanization process than to the self-maintenance process. This study represents an all too preliminary attempt to redress this imbalance in attention. At the present time, non-English language skills are recognized as scarce and vital commodities in the conduct of our nation's international relations. Is it possible that we have appreciable but as yet unrecognized resources of these scarce commodities? This is an attempt to explore the current extent and status of culture and language maintenance efforts. Varying approaches, topics, and levels of collaboration and cross-fertilization were encouraged. It is hoped that the report produced leaves the field of inquiry somewhat more organized than when this effort began.
