Abstract
⺠We review Theory of Mind (ToM) studies in patients with neurodegenerative diseases. ⺠Cognitive and affective ToM are involved in processing other's mental states. ⺠A cognitive ToM deficit in cortical and frontal-subcortical diseases emerged. ⺠Findings for the affective ToM component are more heterogeneous. ⺠We suggest to introduce ToM tasks in the assessment of neurodegenerative diseases.
