“…However, despite both being clearly associated, they constitute different constructs . Some studies found that neurocognition predicts a significant percentage of the variance of social cognition in a way which could explain abnormalities in social cognition . In line with this, we observed that in a sample of euthymic patients with BD, alterations in emotion processing were present in a subgroup of patients with neurocognitive impairment .…”

“…The success of SC may contribute to psychosocial functioning in BD, given the role of these processes in facilitating social interactions and modulating psychosocial wellness so as to promote personal understanding and growth . On the contrary, deficits in SC, including EI, might reduce the accuracy of inferences made by patients concerning emotional state in others and limit the capacity for making social hypotheses which, in turn, may lead to a wide range of maladaptive psychosocial behaviors . Therefore, improving social‐emotional cognitive skills in patients is desirable since it not only would enhance the management of potential stressful situations derived from social interaction which could trigger relapses, but it would also improve both psychosocial functioning and quality of life .…”

Objective The main aims of this study were to examine the differences in the Emotional Intelligence (EI), the emotional domain of social cognition (SC), between euthymic patients with bipolar disorder (BD) and healthy controls (HC) and to evaluate the contribution of sociodemographic, clinical, and neuropsychological variables to EI. Methods We recruited 202 patients with BD and 50 HC. EI was evaluated using the Mayer–Salovey–Caruso Emotional Intelligence Test (MSCEIT). The sociodemographic, clinical, and neurocognitive variables that showed a significant association with EI were entered into hierarchical multiple regression analysis. Results BD patients obtained significantly lower scores compared to HC in the Emotional Intelligence Quotient (EIQ) and in the Understanding Emotions branch score. The best fitting model for the variables associated with EI in the patients group was a linear combination of gender, estimated IQ, family history of affective diagnosis, and executive function. The model, including these previous variables, explained up to 27.6% of the observed variance (R2 = 0.276, F = 16.406, P < 0.001). Conclusions The identification of variables associated with deficit in EI, such as male gender, lower estimated IQ, family history of affective diagnosis. and lower executive function performance, may help in selecting treatment targets to improve SC, and especially EI, in patients with BD.

“…Although it is very likely that social cognitive impairments are implicated in decreased social functioning in affective disorders, the direct connection between social cognition and psychosocial outcomes has rarely been tested (Van Rheenan et al, 2014). Nevertheless, it is clear that social functioning is seriously impaired in patients with MDD (Hirschfeld et al, 2000) and bipolar disorder (Miklowitz, 2011).…”

Impairments in social cognition are now recognized as core illness features in psychotic and affective disorders. Despite the significant disability caused by social cognitive abnormalities, treatments for this symptom dimension are lacking. Here, we describe the evidence demonstrating abnormalities in social cognition in schizophrenia, major depressive disorder, and bipolar disorder, as well as the neurobiology of social cognition including the role of oxytocin. We then review clinical trials of oxytocin administration in psychotic and affective disorders and the impact of this agent on social cognition. To date, several studies have demonstrated that oxytocin may improve social cognition in schizophrenia; too few studies have been conducted in affective disorders to determine the effect of oxytocin on social cognition in these disorders. Future work is needed to clarify which aspects of social cognition may be improved with oxytocin treatment in psychotic and affective disorders.
