Cerebellar and cerebral contributions to social inference impairments in early stages of Alzheimer’s disease
These results clarify that in early-stage AD, cerebellar involvement and its interaction with corresponding cerebral regions may play a more important role in socioemotional processing than previously appreciated. Specifically, left-lateralized cerebellar and right-lateralized cerebral damage predicted poorer social inference understanding in persons with AD. Their emotion reading, in contrast, involved cerebellar and cerebral hemispheres more bilaterally.
