ENThis part of the monograph analyses the language attitudes towards Lithuanian and English of 68 school students (aged 15-19), who attend schools with Lithuanian as the language of instruction. This research aims to reveal the cognitive, affective, and behavioural components of school-student attitudes towards these languages and to identify the functions these attitudes perform. A qualitative analysis of interviews is chosen as a research method. The conducted analysis of school students’ interviews suggests that language attitudes towards the Lithuanian language from a cognitive perspective are very positive and homogeneous and obviously perform a social identity function intertwined with the function of knowledge. Moreover, a utilitarian function of the cognitive component of language attitudes can also be distinguished: Lithuanian is needed as an instrument to create well-being in Lithuania. This research has revealed the following language attitudes towards English at the cognitive level: school students consider that everyone must know English, that is, this idea for them is obvious. They also state that English is the most necessary language; it has to be well-mastered because this is a language that affects their well-being. For them, English is spoken everywhere and connects with the whole world, and it is easy to learn the language. The values attributed to the English language primarily perform a knowledge function and, undoubtedly, a utilitarian function, and they are also associated with the social identity function. Furthermore, the ego-defensive function is also partially revealed.At the affective level, the language attitudes of school students towards the Lithuanian language are also favourable and perform the functions of knowledge and social identity. The affective evaluation of the English language is neutral: English is not evaluated in this respect, and if it is, it is done with reservations. The social identity and egodefensive functions have emerged at the behavioural level of attitudes towards the Lithuanian language, and manifestations of the utilitarian function can be also identified. Oral and written language behaviour based on the Lithuanian language standard is generally perceived positively by school students. They believe that this behaviour expresses respect for their country and thus creates their own positive image. School students also state that different means of expression may be chosen when communicating with different addressees in different contexts, and this attitude can be linked with the social identity function. However, the ego-defensive function is well-marked, the essence of which is the idea that learning the Lithuanian language is very difficult. At the behavioural level, language attitudes towards English are strong and lead to real actions: school students strive to speak English as well as possible and, therefore, they take independent actions to achieve this goal. A clear utilitarian function as well as a function of creating a social identity have been identified: efforts are invested to know English for future well-being or job opportunities and it is also needed to adapt to peers. The ego-defensive function is also partially revealed. [From the publication]
