Abstract
This strategy has already been used, with success, in treatment by Shapiro and colleagues (Shapiro & Thompson, 2006; Thompson & Shapiro 1995; Thompson et al., 1996, 1997, 1998; and also Levy & Friedmann, 2009 treatment of a child with syntactic-SLI). Predicate argument structure (PAS) complexity affects verb access. In a series of response time (CMLD) studies, Shapiro et al. (1987, 1989, 1990, 1993) found the following effects: Individuals without language impairment an effect of the number of argument structure options of a verb more PAS options yield longer RTs in a secondary task. Individuals with Broca’s aphasia the same effect of verb complexity. intact PAS. Individuals with Wernicke’s aphasia no effect of verb complexity. PAS impairment.
