A Case-Control Study Measuring Mentalization in Individuals With PTSD Compared to Controls Using the STOMP Task

[摘要] Aims Social cognition is impaired in a variety of psychiatric conditions; evidence for impairment in individuals with PTSD is increasing. Mentalization is one domain of social cognition that refers to the capacity to understand other people by ascribing mental states to them. The STOMP task (Spontaneous Theory of Mind Protocol) involves an individual watching two minutes of a silent video and describing what they see. As part of a wider project examining social cognition in PTSD, we aimed to find out whether mentalization in the STOMP task differs between patients with PTSD compared to controls.
