Abstract

Introduction: Although it has been proven that theory of mind functions is deterioratedin amnestic type mild cognitive impairment, the relationship between this deterioration andcognitive functions has not been researched. The aim of this study is to compare amnestictype mild cognitive impairment patients with healthy individuals in terms of theory of mindfunctions and to determine the relationship between theory of mind functions and thefunctions of language and memory in amnestic type mild cognitive impairment patients.Materials and Method: Thirty-eight patients with amnestic type mild cognitive impairmentwere compared with 34 healthy individuals in this study. The Reading the Mind in the Eyes Test,Hinting Test, Boston Naming Test, Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Revised Vocabulary TestScore, Öktem Verbal Memory Process Test, and Clock Drawing Test were used for evaluation.Results: The scores of the amnestic type mild cognitive impairment group in the testsevaluating theory of mind functions and the functions of language, memory and ClockDrawing Test were lower than those of the control group. The scores of the amnestic type mildcognitive impairment group in the tests evaluating the theory of mind functions were notassociate with the tests evaluating the functions of language and memory.Conclusion: Amnestic type mild cognitive impairment patients perform worse in terms ofaffective and cognitive theory of mind functions compared with healthy aging individuals. Theimpairment of theory of mind functions in amnestic type mild cognitive impairment patients isthought to be independent of the deterioration of language and memory functions.

Özet

Giriş: Amnestic tip hafif kognitif bozuklukta, zihin kuramı işlevlerinin bozulduğu ortaya konmasına karşın bu bozulmanın bilişsel işlevlerle olan ilişkisi araştırılmamıştır. Bu çalışmanın amacı amnestic tip hafif kognitif bozuklukta bulunan hastalar ile sağlıklı kişileri zihin kuramı işlevleri bakımından karşılaştırmak ve amnestic tip hafif kognitif bozuklukta zihin kuramı işlevlerinin dil ve bellek işlevleri ilişkisini belirlemektir. Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu çalışmada 38 amnestic tip hafif kognitif bozukluk hastası ile 34 sağlıklı katılımcı karşılaştırılmıştır. Değerlendirme amacıyla Gözlerden Zihin Okuma Testi, İmayı Anlama Testi, Boston Adlandırma Testi, Wechsler Yetişkinler İçin Zeka Ölçeği Revize Formu Sözcük Dağarcığı Alt Testi, Öktem Sözel Bellek Süreçleri Testi, Saat Çizme Testi kullanılmıştır. Bulgular: Bu çalışmada amnestic tip hafif kognitif bozukluk grubu kontrol grubuna göre zihin kuramı işlevlerini değerlendiren testler ile dil ve bellek işlevlerini değerlendiren testlerden ve Saat Çizme Testi’nden kontrol grubuna göre daha düşük puan almıştır. Amnestic tip hafif kognitif bozukluk grubunun zihin kuramı işelevlerini değerlendiren testlerden aldığı puanların dil ve bellek işlevlerini değerlendiren testler ile ilişkili olmadığı saptanmıştır. Sonuç: Amnestic tip hafif kognitif bozuklukta hastaları ile sağlıklı yaşlanan kişiler arasında affektif ve kognitif zihin kuramı işlevi açısından daha kötü performans göstermektedir. Amnestic tip hafif kognitif bozuklukta hastalarındaki zihin kuramı işlevlerindeki bozulmanın dil ve bellek işlevlerindeki bozulmadan bağımsız olduğu düşünülmüştür.
