Abstract
▶ The aim of the study was to investigate the theory of mind and decision making in patients with different subregions of prefrontal cortex lesions. ▶ Patients with VMPC lesions performed worse on the theory of mind and decision making. ▶ Patients with DLPC lesions showed impairments of the theory of mind but performed at control levels on the decision making tasks. ▶ The findings imply that VMPC and DLPC play different roles in the processes of ToM and decision making.
