Gli esseri umani comprendono e danno un senso al mondo sociale utilizzando la cognizione sociale, ovvero processi cognitivi attraverso i quali vengono comprese, elaborate e ricordate le proprie interazioni con gli altri (Morgan et al., 2017). Il termine cognizione sociale in maniera generale, viene riferito alle operazioni mentali che sono alla base delle interazioni sociali, tra cui percepire, interpretare e generare risposte alle intenzioni, alle disposizioni e ai comportamenti degli altri (Green et al., 2008). Un livello di ordine superiore della cognizione sociale è rappresentato dalla capacità di comprendere e ragionare sugli stati mentali e affettivi propri e altrui, utilizzando tale comprensione per risolvere i problemi e gestire la sofferenza soggettiva, livello definito mentalizzazione (Bateman & Fonagy, 2012; Choi-Kain & Gunderson, 2008) o metacognizione (Semerari & Dimaggio, 2003). L’attivazione dei sistemi motivazionali interpersonali, così come degli schemi relazionali, possono influenzare l’intersoggettività e le capacità mentali necessarie per gestire i compiti della vita e le relazioni interpersonali.La compromissione della cognizione sociale, così come le disfunzioni delle diverse abilità metacognitive sono riconosciute come una caratteristica chiave di diverse condizioni psicopatologiche.
