The present research
The aim of the present study was to assess whether eye processing is altered in euthymic bipolar disorder. By means of the Reading the Mind in the Eyes test and the eye-gaze cueing task, two aspects of eye processing were assessed: the ability to infer the mental state and intention of others from the eyes and social attention, respectively. We hypothesized that euthymic bipolar patients will be characterized by greater difficulty in the processing of eye-regions of the face than healthy comparison individuals.
