“…The involvement of frontal regions in ToM is in line with previous imaging studies and represents the neuroanatomical bases of the early development of ToM deficits in subjects with bvFTD [3] and of the later involvement of ToM in AD [33,34]. In previous studies, we showed that ToM deficits could represent the first sign of bvFTD in otherwise asymptomatic subjects [35].…”

“…Our data provide support to the premise that executive functions are closely linked to social cognition in AD ( Ramanan et al, 2017 ; Lucena et al, 2020 ). Firstly, performance on the WAIS-Similarities test, which relies on verbal reasoning but is also supported by executive processes ( Woo et al, 2010 ), was shown to be associated with affective ToM ( Miguel et al, 2017 ).…”

“…The RMET examines affective ToM (Baron-Cohen et al, 2001 ), since the subject must attribute another person's mental state. The RMET seems to be less demanding than other ToM tests (Lucena et al, 2020 ) and has been associated with the executive functions and the educational level (Heitz et al, 2016 ). Therefore, the RMET could be less sensitive to detect mild ToM deficits, which could explain why some studies have been unable to find differences between AD patients and controls.…”

“…Moreover, the FBT assess first and second order false beliefs because individuals must inhibit their own knowledge of reality in order to recognise another person's false belief. The FBT may be sensitive to detect ToM alterations in dementia population, but since is related to memory performance, it is essential to control the possible confounding role of memory deficits (Lucena et al, 2020 ). Additionally, the TASIT assesses social perception by asking questions about of other people's intentions presented in short videos.…”
