Subject: Re: [GALA-L] Hypercorrection and gender

For a student looking into this topic in her final paper, can anyone 
recommend empirical research (beyond the assertions in Robin Lakoff's 
work that women are more likely to hypercorrect than men, and the 
general literature from Trudgill on addressing covert prestige) on 
this topic?  Thanks.

Larry Horn
