Discourse Markedness and Structural Markedness
Studies in Second Language Acquisition, 1990This study investigates second language acquisition of English noun phrases in discourse, examining the effect of discourse markedness and structural markedness on the development of noun phrase use. English L2 noun phrase forms are examined within three universal discourse contexts: current, known, and new reference to topics.

Markedness, markedness inversion, and dependency phonology
Australian Journal of Linguistics, 1991One of the basic assumptions of dependency phonology is that the notation should encode the markedness values of segments, systems, and processes.

Markedness and dominance in the ATR harmony system of Diola-Fogny
Journal of African Languages and Linguistics, 2018Diola-Fogny is a well-known example of a tongue root harmony language with assimilatory dominance of [+ATR] vowels. Less well known, however, are some asymmetries involving the frequency and distribution of [+ATR] and [-ATR] vowels.

In the studies of opposite pairings, the saying that some opposite pairs have one member as unmarked and the other marked “covers a number of disparate and independent phenomena” (Lyons 1977: 305). A lot of work has been done on selecting criteria for determining the unmarked/marked members (e.g., Lehrer 1985).

Proceedings of the 9th conference on Computational linguistics -, 1982
When the markedness analysis is extended to the lexical and grammatical levels, the question arises whether an analogue of the markedness/frequency correlation, observed in phonology, also exists on these higher linguistic levels. This article presents evidence that in some interesting cases, such as tense and aspect forms in English, the correlation ...

Language, 1972
The thesis of this paper is that explanation in linguistics must refer to a deductively formulated theory of language couched in terms of semiotic universals. A theory of this kind, utilizing complementarity and markedness as formal universals, is developed and applied as the explanans of linguistic phenomena from Russian, Spanish,

'Markedness' refers to the tendency of languages to show a preference for particular structures or sounds. This bias towards 'marked' elements is consistent within and across languages, and tells us a great deal about what languages can and cannot do. This pioneering study presents a groundbreaking theory of markedness in phonology.
