In Lowi’s paper, she decided to create an experiment analyzing code switching by spectating the code switching behaviors of various participants through their telephone lines.  After interviewing each person and understanding their opinions of code switching as well as their personal language history, the experiment was activated.  And what I found was very unique about it is that people who grew up in bilingual households or looked positively upon code switching performed it much more often than those who opposed the idea.  An example would be Ana who felt that languages must not be mixed and instead maintain a solid state: “Ana was ambivalent on the issue of codeswitching. She considered ‘mixing’ languages a sign of incompetent usage” (Lowi 1395).  Thus, she refrained from code switching however would still switch languages when she expressed dis contempt with her son.  Thinking back to Lyiscott, I wonder if the reason she is able to maintain all three tongues is because of her positive opinion of code switching.
