Abstract 


Both Sympathy constraints and OO-correspondence constraints are types of correspondence constraints, and both can induce opaque phenomena. Yet, Sympathetic constraint interaction is mediated by a special type of correspondence constraints (cumulativity constraints), while OO-correspondence is mediated by ordinary correspondence constraints. This paper argues that cumulative constraints can also be used in OO-correspondence. It is also argued that this is desirable for two reasons: (i) It unifies these two kinds of non-IO-correspondence. (ii) Certain types of OO-correspondence induced opacity that are possible with ordinary correspondence constraints, are excluded if cumulative constraints are used. Cumulative OO-correspondence constraints therefore result in a more restrictive theory.
