Experimental and theoretical advances in prosody: A review (2010, background): “One is that the link between syntactic structure and prosodic breaks is formalised in the grammar as prosodic structure (eg, Selkirk, 2000 ; Truckenbrodt, 1999 ), and prosodic structure provides cues to syntactic structure through knowledge of the grammar.”
Intonational pitch accent distribution in Egyptian Arabic. (2006, methodology): “This can be expressed as an alignment constraint ALIGNXP,R requiring an MaP for each maximal projection (XP), such that the right edge of the XP coincides with the right edge of the MaP (Selkirk 2000), as shown in (5.”
The relationship between intonational phrasing and syntactic structure in language production (2004, background): “Researchers have argued that speakers may attempt to balance their intonational phrases into units of roughly equal size (Cooper & Paccia-Cooper, 1980; Fodor, 1998; Gee & Grosjean, 1983; Selkirk, 2000).”
Subjects, objects and intonational phrasing in spanish and portuguese* (2005, background): “Likewise, as 6 See footnote 2 for discussion on the use of the term Major Phrase.”
Effects of constituent length and syntactic branching on intonational phrasing in Ibero-Romance (2003, background): “In the last decade, a large body of evidence has shown that the placement of intonational boundaries in various languages is beyond the scope of syntax and that factors like information structure, constituent weight and speech rate play a major role in phrasing decisions [1-5].”
