Summary:	For Query: Linguist 11.345 Dear all, Thanks for paying attention to my question about available research concerning OT and SLA. I am sorry to say that there aren't many articles to be found on the subject. The following articles are actually the only relevant ones: Broselow, E., S. Chen and C. Wang (1988). "The Emergence of the unmarked in Second Language Phonology." Studies in Second Language Acquisition 20: 261-280. Hancin-Bhatt, B., & Bhatt, R. M. (1997). Optimal L2 syllables: Interactions of transfer and developmental effects. Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 19, 331-378. GOAD, H. Consonant harmony in child language: An optimality-theoretic account, in Focus on phonological acquisition, S.J. Hannahs & M. Young-Scholten, eds., Amsterdam: John Benjamins, 1997, pp. 113-142. LB I hope that these are of any use to you.
