English V-schwa alternations in children's speech

[Levelt, C.C.]

Here's a paper on schwas being produced as full vowels in Dutch child language:

Levelt, C. (2008). Phonology and phonetics in the development of schwa in Dutch child language. Lingua 118, 9,1344-1361.

Hi,
I've noticed some interesting 'hypercorrection'-type errors, both in my own kid's speech and in the CHILDES corpora, with English V~schwa alternations. Examples:

Edison is [i]llergic to eggs.
I don't want a el[o]phant.

Does anyone know of previous work on this? Any information, references, observations, etc. would be appreciated. Thanks -

Marjorie
