      ab: A study was conducted to examine dimensions and group expectations of ethnolinguistic vitality in the new South Africa. Data were drawn from questionnaires completed by 466 blacks, 347 Afrikaans-speaking whites, and 113 English-speaking whites. Results of a factor analysis yielded five dimensions of ethnolinguistic vitality termed Institutional Support, Group Status and Power, Maintenance of Identity, Maintenance of Symbols, and Threat to Identity. The results also indicated that the expectations of groups varied significantly with regard to the dimensions of ethnolinguistic vitality. Relations between the dimensions and other variables and the implications of the results are considered in the context of sociopolitical and economic change in South Africa.
