An Analysis of the Substitution Errors of a Group of Standard English-Speaking Children

Abstract
Misarticulation of consonants in a sample of 384 standard English-speaking children from grades one through 12 was recorded and classified according to type of error: omission, substitution, or distortion. Substitutions were further analyzed with reference to the feature content of each target phoneme and is realization. The differential stability and nonindependence of the various phonetic features were shown to provide insight into the substitution process.
