Özet

Objective. Alzheimer's Dementia is defined as multiple impairments in cognitive functions and language impairment is one of the observed problems in this disease. In order to analyse these problems, narrative speech transcriptions of Turkish patients with early and late-onset Alzheimer's Disease (AD) and an age/education-matched control group were examined.
