Time efficiency in mental state reasoning of people with multiple sclerosis: The double-sided affective and cognitive Theory of Mind disturbances.

 Theory of Mind (ToM) disturbances are recognized as a hallmark of several neurological conditions including multiple sclerosis (MS). People with MS show lower ToM competencies compared to healthy controls (HC) from the earliest stages of the disease. However, the nature of this disturbance is still under investigation.

Healthcare professionals' beliefs, attitudes, and thoughts toward cardiopulmonary telerehabilitation: A mixed-methods study.

Healthcare professionals' opinions, attitudes, and thoughts toward new digital healthcare are often overlooked. However, they play a crucial role in accepting new digital care strategies. This research aimed to understand the perceptions of cardiopulmonary rehabilitation professionals towards telerehabilitation by conducting a mixed-method study at various Fondazione Don Carlo Gnocchi centers in Italy.

The 36-Item Yoni Task: Normative Data for the Clinical Assessment of Theory of Mind.

The evaluation of Theory of Mind (ToM) in the clinical setting remains limited due to the lack of valid instruments for a quick and reliable assessment. In this study, the psychometric properties of the Yoni-36 task were tested, and correction grids, equivalence scores, and normative data were computed. : In total, 318 healthy subjects (169 females; mean age = 42.

Human reasoning on social interactions in ecological contexts: insights from the theory of mind brain circuits.

Introduction: The relationship between neural social cognition patterns and performance on social cognition tasks in daily life is a topic of debate, with key consideration given to the extent to which theory of mind (ToM) brain circuits share properties reflecting everyday social functioning. To test the efficacy of ecological stimuli in eliciting brain activation within the ToM brain circuits, we adapted the Edinburgh Social Cognition test social scenarios, consisting of dynamic ecological contextually embedded social stimuli, to a fMRI paradigm.

Methods: Forty-two adults (21 men, mean age ± SD = 34.

Reliability and minimal detectable change of the Yoni task for the theory of mind assessment.

Introduction: The Theory of Mind (ToM) assessment is becoming essential to evaluate the response to a social cognition intervention and to monitor the progression of social abilities impairment in atypical conditions. In the Italian setting, the Yoni task has been recently validated in its short version (the Yoni-48 task) to evaluate ToM in the clinical setting. The present study aimed to verify the test-retest reliability and the Minimal Detectable Change (MDC) of the Yoni-48 task.
