Abstract：
BACKGROUND: Mentalization can be defined as a mental process by which an individual directly or indirectly perceives and interprets one\'s own and others\' behavior, emotions, beliefs, and needs based on designed mental states. Mentalization problems may be linked to remove associative white matter fiber disconnection. Multiple sclerosis (MS) is one of the diseases with white matter lesions. By comparing MS patients with healthy controls, it was aimed to assess whether MS patients\' mentalization skills are affected.
METHODS: This study involved 243 participants (170 healthy controls and 73 patients with MS). All the participants completed a sociodemographic questionnaire and the Mentalization Scale (MentS).
RESULTS: While it was discovered that MentS scores for the dimension of others-based mentalization (MentS-O) were statistically lower in MS group, there was no statistically significant difference between the groups in terms of the dimensions of motivation to mentalize (MentS-M) and self-based mentalization (MentS-S) scores.
CONCLUSIONS: We may conclude that MS patients have trouble comprehending other people\'s thoughts. This effect can be one of the causes of MS patients\' issues with social cognition.

摘要：
背景：心理化可以定义为一种心理过程，通过这种心理过程，个人可以直接或间接地感知和解释自己和他人的行为，情感,信仰,和基于设计的精神状态的需求。引导问题可能与去除缔合性白质纤维断开有关。多发性硬化(MS)是伴有白质病变的疾病之一。通过比较MS患者与健康对照，目的是评估MS患者的心理技能是否受到影响.
方法：本研究涉及243名参与者（170名健康对照和73名MS患者）。所有参与者都完成了社会人口统计学问卷和心理量表（MentS）。
结果：虽然发现MS组中基于他人的心理化（MentS-O）维度的MentS得分在统计学上较低，在动机心理化(MentS-M)和自我心理化(MentS-S)得分方面,组间无统计学显著差异.
结论：我们可以得出结论，MS患者难以理解他人的想法。这种效应可能是MS患者社会认知问题的原因之一。
