Traditional theories of phonological variation propose that morphemes be encoded with
descriptors such as [+/–Rule X], to capture which of them participate in a variable process …

In my dissertation I examined the interaction of the phonological grammar and lexicon
through the lens of Lexical Conservatism (Steriade, 1997). Lexical Conservatism is a theory …

Experimental research has uncovered language learners' ability to frequency-match to
statistical generalizations across the lexicon, while also acquiring the idiosyncratic behavior …

This paper presents a formal analysis of recent work by Breiss et al.(2021) enriching the
quantitative understanding of a well-known case of paradigm uniformity in Japanese …

Background Frequency matching behaviors have been observed in experiments in a variety
of languages and contexts: ranging from Tagalog nasal substitution (Zuraw, 2000), voicing …

We examine the joint roles of type frequency and token frequency in three artificial language
learning experiments involving lexicalized plural allomorphy. The primary role of type …
