*Title** | **Comment** |  |:----------|:------------|  | Anthropomorphic triangles \citep*{26177119} | This clever study results from Dr. Eddy's research on social cognition in TS. People with TS and controls demonstrated intact mentalizing when observing animated triangles demonstrating simple and complex interactions. However, people with TS  tended to attribute human-like intentions to brief ambiguous animated sequences showing when the  two triangles moving. were moving randomly.  This tendency was not explained by other constructs such as executive function, alexithymia or clinical symptoms.| | The eyes have it \citep{26175694} | A measure of cognitive control explained half of the variance in tic severity. Blink rate—related to dopamine—was higher in children with TS than in controls. Pupil diameter—related to norepinephrine—was correlated with anxiety. |
