Exploring Theory of Mind abilities in patients with probable idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus

Journal of Neuropsychology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigated Theory of Mind (ToM) deficits in patients with suspected idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH), a condition affecting motor, cognitive and autonomic functions. Given the overlap between ToM‐related neural networks and those affected in iNPH, we examined whether ToM impairments are a feature of the disease ...
