Previous work on children's acquisition of complex sequences points to a tendency for affricates to be acquired before clusters, but there is no clear evidence of a difference between clusters with /s/ that violate the Sonority Sequencing Principle (SSP), such as /s/ followed by stop in initial position, and other clusters that obey SSP. One problem with studies that have compared the acquisition of SSP-obeying and SSP-violating clusters is that the component sounds in the two types of sequences were different.

520 $a This dissertation consists of three studies examining the acquisition of initial /s/- stop and stop-/s/ sequences in Greek, a language where both sequences are common and contain the same component phonemes. Study I examined the time-course of acquisition, error patterns and temporal characteristics of these sequences, as produced by sixty typically-developing Greek-speaking children in familiar real words. Results showed that contrary to the predictions of SSP, initial stop-/s/ clusters were generally produced less accurately than /s/-stop clusters, and with more variable error patterns. However, error patterns for /ts/ patterned together with those for the /s/-stop clusters, involving primarily stop substitutions. Moreover, [s] duration for /ts/ was considerably shorter than that of any other sequence supporting the view that /ts/ is phonetically an affricate in Greek. Study 2 tested whether stop place of articulation is more robust in an initial /s/-stop than a stop-/s/ sequence in Greek. Perceptual salience was assessed by native (Greek) and non-native (English) naive adult listeners' identification of the target sequences in noise. Results showed that /s/-stop clusters were more accurately identified in noise than stop-/s/ clusters regardless of language experience, supporting the claim that initial /s/-stop clusters are more perceptually robust. Study 3 examined psychoacoustic characteristics of stop place of articulation cues in adjacent [s] during adults' and children's productions. Results showed that for sequences containing /k/ such cues were generally less consistent than for those containing /p/ or /t/. Children's patterns were similar to adults', but generally provided less redundant information to listeners about the place of articulation of the adjacent stop. The implications of these findings for phonological acquisition and speech perception are discussed.
