Özet

Introduction: Although it has been proven that theory of mind functions is deteriorated in amnestic type mild cognitive impairment, the relationship between this deterioration and cognitive functions has not been researched. The aim of this study is to compare amnestic type mild cognitive impairment patients with healthy individuals in terms of theory of mind functions and to determine the relationship between theory of mind functions and the functions of language and memory in amnestic type mild cognitive impairment patients.
