	abstract     = {The analysis of discourse and pragmatics, which deteriorate alongside other linguistic levels in cognitive decline, can enhance our understanding of dementia-related language patterns and contribute to the improvement of automated diagnostic tools. This study focuses on discourse cohesion, specifically investigating three linguistic phenomena: reference, lexical repetition, and connectives. Six features related to these categories were defined and automatically extracted from an Italian corpus of semi-spontaneous speech, collected from patients with early dementia, MCI subjects, and healthy controls. Some of these features proved significant in distinguishing among the three groups. Additional quantitative analysis revealed notable differences in the use of these elements, suggesting a potential link between their degradation and cognitive decline.},
