“…Over the years, studies have shown that this central impairment has several consequences, including difficulties in language domains that are not traditionally considered to rely heavily on semantic cognition, such as inflectional morphology (Benedet, Patterson, Gomez-Pastor, & Garcia de la Rocha, 2006;Cortese, Balota, Sergent-Marshall, Buckner, & Gold, 2006;Jefferies, Rogers, Hopper, & Lambon Ralph, 2010;Lambon Ralph et al, 2011;Meteyard & Patterson, 2009;Meteyard, Quain, & Patterson, 2014;Murray, Koenig, Antani, McCawley, & Grossman, 2007;Patterson, Lambon Ralph, Hodges, & McClelland, 2001;Patterson et al, 2006;Rochon, Kavé, Cupit, Jokel, & Winocur, 2004;Sajjadi, Patterson, Tomek, & Nestor, 2012;Wilson et al, 2014; for a review, see Auclair-Ouellet, 2015). Support for the presence of morpholog-ical difficulties in SD comes in large part from studies that target the production of inflected verbs in controlled contexts (i.e., carrier 1 Published in Brain and Language 155-156, 1-11, 2016 which should be used for any reference to this work phrases) (Benedet et al, 2006;Cortese et al, 2006;Jefferies et al, 2010;Patterson et al, 2001Patterson et al, , 2006Wilson et al, 2014). In these contexts, the performance of SD patients is characterised by difficulties to produce the past-tense of irregular verbs, especially those of low frequency, while the production of regular inflected verbs is largely preserved (Jefferies et al, 2010;Patterson et al, 2001Patterson et al, , 2006Wilson et al, 2014).…”
