Abstract
Three issues related to impairments within the semantic domain are considered. It is argued that the access failure/degraded store dichotomy remains useful. Problems are shown in the more parsimonious explanations of the visual/verbal semantic processing discrepancies and category-specific effects put forward by Riddoch, Humphreys, Coltheart, and Funnell (this volume).Keywords
