Abstract
A representative sample of 100 Ss were drawn from a bilingual community in Finland. They were matched on self-rated proficiency in Swedish and Finnish and tested on six variables of linguistic proficiency in each language by parallel tests. Factor analysis revealed two factors for each language: one performance factor and one self-rating factor. The conclusion is drawn that the subjective impression of linguistic proficiency was equally little differentiated in each language, and to some extent independent of test performance.
