Current Potential for Clinical Optimization of Social Cognition Assessment for Frontotemporal Dementia and Primary Psychiatric Disorders

AbstractDodich and colleagues recently reviewed the evidence supporting clinical use of social cognition assessment in behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia (Dodich et al.,2021). Here, we comment on their methods and present an initiative to address some of the limitations that emerged from their study. In particular, we established the social cognition workgroup within the Neuropsychiatric International Consortium Frontotemporal dementia (scNIC-FTD), aiming to validate social cognition assessment for diagnostic purposes and tracking of change across clinical situations.
