• Phonetic bias in sound change (2011, background): “To be sure, cases of the expected type have been described in changes such as English vowel reduction (Fidelholtz 1975) and flapping (Rhodes 1992), among others summarized by Bybee (2001, 2002) and Phillips (2006), but three problems remain.”
• Consequences of the Now-or-Never bottleneck for signed versus spoken languages (2015, background): “The extent and speed of such sound change is affected by a number of factors, including frequency, word class, and phonological environment (e.g., Bybee 2002; Phillips 2006).”
• The evolution of medial /t/ over real and remembered time (2016, background): “Several scholars working in usage-based models have searched for word-frequency effects of this kind (e.g. Bybee 2001, 2002, Phillips 2006).”
