Sonority and the acquisition of /s/ clusters in children with phonological disorders.
The structure of /s/-clusters has been a rather controversial subject due to their structural oddities. Studies on the acquisition of these clusters have contributed to the discussion to validate certain theoretical claims, and sonority-related issues have always been in focus. Cross-linguistic acquisition data from children with phonological disorders can provide further testing ground for several unsettled matters regarding their syllabification.
