The study was designed to measure the Communication Apprehension (CA) of Mexican American high school students and compare that data with the results of previous research. The results indicated that (1) Mexican American students have a significantly higher percentage of high CAs than Anglo high school students,(2) the high CA levels occur when either Spanish or English is spoken, and (3) perceived speech proficiency was positively, significantly related to CA measures.
