Abstract
Assessments of the narrative abilities of patients suffering from Alzhei- mer's disease should consider the interactions that generate the narra- tives. By analyzing the discourse of an AD patient in interaction with two different interlocutors, namely her husband and the author, this study calls attention to ways in which one interaction facilitates narra- tives and the other does not. Previous psycholinguistic research, largely focusing on the resultant narrative, has understood the AD patient's deteriorating narrative skills as a result of the progressively debilitating nature of the disease. This is undoubtedly true, but extensive and mean- ingful talk is nevertheless possible, partially grounded in and constructed through social interaction.
