Abstract
This paper analyses how people with dementia react to the question‐answer adjacency pair. This work aims to (a), verify if the ability to answer questions persists until the final stages of dementia (b), check if the number of preferred and relevant answers decreases progressively and (c) prove the compensatory strategies they use to answer questions correctly. Ten people with different types of dementia were videotaped while talking about their lives. The findings suggest the ability to complete the question‐adjacency pair is preserved until the severe stage, when the number of answered questions decreases. However, the number of preferred and relevant answers decreases as the disease progresses. Requests for clarification, vague responses and recognizing the communicative problems were the main communicative strategies used to continue with conversation.
