Abstract
Social cognition, an area of interest in schizophrenia research, has been related to functional outcomes. In this paper, we intended to determine if social cognition is impaired in individuals with schizophrenia (N=15), compared to controls (N=15) and to investigate the correlation between social cognition (measured with Narrative of Emotions Task), neurocognition (Montreal Cognitive Assessment) and functional outcomes (Role Functioning Scale, Independent Living Skills Survey). Our results suggest that higher levels of social cognition are related to better functioning in schizophrenia and that social cognition might have a specific influence, irrespective of the common processes it shares with neurocognition.
