  PapuaWEB: S3(PhD) Elenbaas 1999 - ringkasan (abstract)
Essential to the analysis of mixed binary-ternary rhythm is an anti-lapse constraint, defined on the pure grid, which interacts with the standard array of OT constraints on syllable parsing, foot alignment, and quantity-sensitivity.
In the analysis of the stress systems of Sentani and Finnish, several issues of broader relevance arise, such as the analysis of partial quantity sensitivity; reference to the pure grid versus the bracketed grid; free variation in output patterns; and the notion 'base' in output-output correspondence.
An OT analysis of Sentani stress is given in Chapter 4, with special attention to rhythmic aspects, such as clash and lapse avoidance and non-finality of stress.
