Purpose: Language production in semantic dementia(SD) is characterized by a lexical–semantic deficitand largely preserved argument structure and inflectionproduction. This study investigates (a) the effectof argument structure on verb retrieval and (b) theinterrelation between inflection marking and verb retrievalin SD. Method: Seven individuals with SD and 7 healthy controlsperformed 2 sentence elicitation tasks. In Experiment 1,participants described the action taking place in a video.In Experiment 2, they watched the same videos precededby a phrase prompting the production of past tense.Three verb classes were tested: (a) unergative (e.g., towalk), (b) unaccusative (e.g., to fall ), and (c) transitive with1 object (e.g., to read a book). Results: There was not any quantitative difference amongthe verb classes in Experiment 1, but error analysis hintedat difficulties related with argument structure complexity.The findings of Experiment 2 suggest no general effect ofinflection on verb retrieval; ...
