• The gradual path to cluster simplification* (2008, background): “For instance, M AX (V : ) prevents deletion of underlying long vowels, and it extends this protection to underlying long vowels that are shortened in the output, so its context must be defined on the input (Gouskova 2003, McCarthy 2005).”
• The extended prosodic word (2009, background): “In the context of OT, Gouskova (2003) has shown that economy constraints of the *STRUC family that penalize structure as such produce unattested patterns under reranking and should be excluded from CON. formulations of No-RECURSION have been proposed, either as a categorical constraint directly…”
• What Is Optimality Theory? (2007, background): “Exactly parallel situations are found in phonology (Gouskova 2003): in Lillooet, for instance, the vowel [e] appears only when it is needed for markedness reasons, in words that would otherwise be vowelless and in clusters that would otherwise violate sonority-sequencing requirements.”
