The present study was to investigate the theory of mind ability using two tasks in order to understand social deficits in schizophrenic patients. 22 schizophrenic patients and 22 normal controls were asked judge the appropriateness of a facial affect and intention behind the facial expression. Tasks were constructed from 38 pair of photographs of facial expression and social-emotional situation. Task-I was designed to test judgemental capacity for the appropriateness of a facial affect. Task-II was designed to investigate the intention behind the facial expression. Results showed that schizophrenic patients earned significantly lower scores and associations between two items(conceptual disorganization and difficulties in abstract thinking) of positive and negative syndroms and performance level in both tasks. These findings suggests that schizophrenic patients is difficult to represent the mental states of others and have problems in their social functioning.
