Among the cognitive functions affected by Multiple Sclerosis (MS) disease, recent literature has focused on Theory of Mind (ToM), the ability of recognition and the attribution of mental states to predict future behaviors. To our knowledge, despite the ToM deficit is well recognized in MS, there is no training established for the treatment in this population. For these reasons, we aimed to design and implement a ToM training to empower this social ability based on engaging material derived from cinema, and literature (cultural ToM Training - CToM). However, recent literature highlighted the importance of a rigorous methodology when a training rehabilitation program is designed, with the necessity to assess its acceptability as the first step of the implementation process. For this reason, this study aimed to evaluate the acceptability of our CToM designed for adult people with MS (PwMS). We developed two ad-hoc instruments to measure if and how our cultural training could be considered acceptable and evaluate cultural attitudes of PwMS sample. The results show that CToM training has been evaluated as very acceptable; the acceptability has proved very high also if we consider the acceptability results in the sub-factors retained by the factorial analyses. We assessed the CToM to be highly reliable at an alpha value of .85. The CToM - TAQ could be hence a useful instrument to detect the acceptability and its specific sub-components. Future works could validate our questionnaire to enlarge the availability of assessment instruments for the acceptability evaluation of a rehabilitation training program.

多发性硬化症患者的心理训练理论:制定评估治疗可接受性的量表

在受多发性硬化症 (MS) 疾病影响的认知功能中,最近的文献侧重于心理理论 (ToM)、识别能力和心理状态预测未来行为的归因。据我们所知,尽管 ToM 缺陷在 MS 中得到广泛认可,但没有针对该人群的治疗建立培训。出于这些原因,我们的目标是设计和实施一项 ToM 培训,以基于来自电影和文学的引人入胜的材料来增强这种社交能力(文化 ToM 培训 - CToM)。然而,最近的文献强调了在设计训练康复计划时采用严格方法的重要性,并且有必要评估其可接受性作为实施过程的第一步。为此原因,本研究旨在评估我们为成年 MS (PwMS) 设计的 CToM 的可接受性。我们开发了两个临时工具来衡量我们的文化培训是否以及如何被认为是可接受的,并评估 PwMS 样本的文化态度。结果表明,CToM 培训已被评估为非常可接受;如果我们考虑因子分析保留的子因素中的可接受性结果,则可接受性也被证明是非常高的。我们评估 CToM 在 alpha 值为 0.85 时高度可靠。因此,CToM - TAQ 可能是检测可接受性及其特定子组件的有用工具。未来的工作可以验证我们的问卷,以扩大评估工具的可用性,以评估康复训练计划的可接受性。
