Abstract: In the present study, we analyze the relationship between social cognition and language and, specifically, between Theory of Mind (ToM) and syntax. We propose a reflection about the importance of understanding this relationship especially for future clinical applications. We propose to divide the state of the art on the topic into two major strands: the hypothesis of dependence and the hypothesis of independence between ToM and syntax.
