Definition
the role that a particular participant performs in an event – specifically, what the participant does, or has done to them, in the course of the event. Example: in the eating event, there is an 'eater' participant role and a 'food' participant role, and different things happen with the 'eater' and the 'food' in the eating event. (Sections 6.1.1, 6.1.2)
