The central focus will then shift towards comprehending and addressing the specific social cognitive deficits associated with different types of NDs and examining the challenges posed in the realm of social cognition. Strategies and interventions specifically designed for social cognitive rehabilitation will be investigated. The chapter will encompass a discussion on the caregiver burden and effective coping strategies to alleviate the stresses faced.
