Abstract
An alternative account of the locus equation phenomenon based on recen t theories of speech movement planning is provided. It is similar to S ussman et al.'s account in positing that our productions are tuned to satisfy auditory constraints. It differs by suggesting that the locus equation effect may be an epiphenomenon of a planning process that sat isfies simpler auditory constraints.
