Abstract:
This study aimed to evaluate the correlation between cognitive function and emotional dysregulation in patients suffering from psychiatric disorders hosted in rehabilitation facilities, but within this sample, there are also perpetrators of violence who are not residents in facilities but are followed in clinics for crimes related to family violence. All patients were administered the rating scale to investigate general impulsivity, perform psychopathological evaluation, evaluate aberrant salience, and conduct a general cognitive assessment.
