This dissertation examined the attitudes of a group of European Spanish-speakers toward Andalusian Spanish, a southern dialect which has been highly stigmatized and stereotyped as an uneducated and low-class variant. Prior investigations have corroborated that these perceptions were genuine, as the general attitudes from Madrilenian speakers toward this variety of Spanish were not too positive when they referred to the linguistic features linked to Andalusian Spanish. Therefore, this project empirically updated and analyzed the degree to which (non-)Andalusian speakers possessed negative attitudes toward Andalusian Spanish. To verify how this stigmatization materialized, I gathered a sample of speakers from all social groups taking into account factors such as age, gender, or education. With that purpose in mind, 80 Spanish participants (N = 42 from Seville and N = 38 from Madrid) completed 3 (non-)linguistic tasks that allowed to discover their (un)conscious views on the matter. These tasks were: an IAT, a MGT, and a survey. Results confirmed that non-Andalusians still held negative attitudes toward Andalusian Spanish although these have been somewhat reduced when compared with results from previous research. On the contrary, and in the case of Andalusians, their positive results toward Andalusia from the cultural point of view as well as from the conscious survey did not mirror the findings derived from the unconscious linguistic task. Andalusians showed pride for their linguistic variety, as they defended their right to not accommodate. However, they still believed that their vernacular features could not be associated with qualities such as "professional". This dissertation contributed to the field of Sociolinguistics in several ways. Firstly, it broadened the body of research of linguistic attitudes owing to the fact that this project measured attitudes from the group that has been stigmatized. Secondly, it included a task, the Implicit Association Test, that derives from social psychology and that has been infrequently used in Hispanic Sociolinguistics. Thirdly, both the methodology and the results obtained could be generalized to the study of language attitudes in any other language whose linguistic structure has been designated as a prestigious variety versus others more stigmatized, especially in languages that are highly prescriptive.
