However, they show a great sensitiveness to empathy, and an ability to communicate their emotional state in a correct way, using face expression, attitude, voice modulation, look and behaviour. The question here is to know whether such patients have the ability to interact with their entourage in a completely implicit (unconscious) way. This leads us to work clinically, using the hypothesis that well shaped thoughts are built on affective thought-matrix that can be involved in intuitive exchange, especially between people with strong relationships.
