We examined the effectiveness of naming therapy for a patient with semantic variant primary progressive aphasia (svPPA) using two types of Cues. One was an episodic Cue based on the patientʼs experience, and the other was a semantic Cue using dictionary definitions. We also evaluated the duration and generalization of the effect after eight weeks of naming therapy. We found improvement in the rates of correct answers with both Cue types after the eight weeks of therapy,but once the therapy ended the patientʼs performance gradually declined. Following therapy, the patient came to demonstrate use of episodic circumlocutions. Moreover, she seemed to develop motivation in her daily life. These findings suggest that episodic Cues could be continuously used as self-Cues in svPPA.
