This dissertation investigates the fricativization of voiced stops as a compensatory process triggered by coda /s/ reduction in Western Andalusian Spanish (WAS), examining both its production and perception. Specifically, the study addresses two main research questions: (1) how /s/ + voiced stop /b, d, g/ sequences are phonetically realized in WAS, and (2) how these sequences are perceived by WAS listeners. The term Compensatory Voiced Fricatives (CVFs) refers to the fricative realizations [v ð ɣ] that occur in these contexts, replacing the expected approximant productions [β̞ ð̞ ɣ̞] when coda /s/ is weakened or elided.Two experiments were conducted to explore these questions, one focusing on production and the other on perception. In the production experiment, a controlled task was used to analyze the phonetic realization of /s/ + /b, d, g/ sequences in WAS by examining measures such as duration, spectral properties, and intensity ratios. The results indicate a systematic fricativization of voiced stops in weakened /-s/ + /b, d, g/ contexts, with CVFs exhibiting longer durations, higher spectral centroids, and lower intensity ratios than their approximant counterparts. These findings highlight the presence of gradient phonetic variation in WAS and provide an empirical foundation for understanding the role of compensatory timing and frication in phonological restructuring.The perception experiment investigated how CVFs are categorized by WAS listeners, with a particular focus on phonological categorization and cue integration. Three perceptual tasks-an AX discrimination task, a sequence-based identification task, and a Visual Analog Slider (VAS) task-were employed to assess sensitivity to these variants and to examine the role of segmental duration in distinguishing fricative from approximant productions. Results suggest that WAS listeners utilize segmental duration as a key perceptual cue, thereby supporting the phonologization of CVFs.Overall, this dissertation sheds light on how gradient phonetic variation interacts with perceptual reanalysis, ultimately shaping the emergence of phonological contrast and the trajectory of sound change in Western Andalusian Spanish.

520 $a Esta tesis investiga la fricativizacion de las oclusivas sonoras como un proceso compensatorio desencadenado por la reduccion de /s/ en coda en el espanol andaluz occidental (WAS, por sus siglas en ingles), examinando tanto su produccion como su percepcion. En concreto, el estudio aborda dos preguntas de investigacion principales: (1) como se realizan foneticamente las secuencias /s/ + oclusiva sonora /b, d, g/ en el WAS, y (2) como son percibidas dichas secuencias por los hablantes de esta variedad. El termino Fricativas Sonoras Compensatorias (CVFs, por sus siglas en ingles) se refiere a las realizaciones fricativas [v ð ɣ] que aparecen en estos contextos, sustituyendo las producciones aproximantes esperadas [β̞ ð̞ ɣ̞] cuando la /s/ en coda se debilita o elide.Se llevaron a cabo dos experimentos para explorar estas cuestiones: uno centrado en la produccion y otro en la percepcion. En el experimento de produccion, se utilizo una tarea controlada para analizar la realizacion fonetica de las secuencias /s/ + /b, d, g/ en WAS, evaluando medidas como la duracion, las propiedades espectrales y las relaciones de intensidad. Los resultados indican una fricativizacion sistematica de las oclusivas sonoras en contextos con /-s/ debilitada, con CVFs que presentan mayores duraciones, centroides espectrales mas altos y relaciones de intensidad mas bajas que sus contrapartes aproximantes. Estos hallazgos ponen de manifiesto la existencia de variacion fonetica gradual en WAS y ofrecen una base empirica para comprender el papel de la temporizacion compensatoria y la fricacion en la reestructuracion fonologica.El experimento de percepcion examino como los oyentes de WAS categorizan las CVFs, con especial atencion a la categorizacion fonologica y la integracion de pistas acusticas. Se emplearon tres tareas perceptivas-una tarea de discriminacion AX, una tarea de identificacion basada en secuencias y una tarea de escala visual analogica (VAS)-para evaluar la sensibilidad a estas variantes y examinar el papel de la duracion segmental en la distincion entre producciones fricativas y aproximantes. Los resultados sugieren que los oyentes de WAS utilizan la duracion segmental como una pista perceptiva clave, lo que respalda la fonologizacion de las CVFs.En conjunto, esta tesis arroja luz sobre como la variacion fonetica gradual interactua con el reanalisis perceptivo, moldeando finalmente la emergencia de contrastes fonologicos y la trayectoria del cambio linguistico en el espanol andaluz occidental.
