Rezumat:

This study systematically investigates the
temporal organization of American English onset
and coda consonant clusters on the basis of
kinematic data. Results suggest that consonants in
complex onsets are organized globally with respect
to the following vowel (c-center organization), while
consonants in complex codas are coordinated
sequentially. These results support the competitive
coupling model hypothesized for complex onsets,
and is also consistent with the non-competitive
coupling relations assumed for codas. We also
observe a difference between /l/-clusters and /s/-
clusters, potentially due to the particular gestural
composition of American English /l/.
