The Theory of Mind (ToM) is the ability to infer, predict, and attribute mental states to others. This construct has been studied for many illnesses, such as autism, schizophrenia, and Down syndrome. Recent studies have shown that an impaired ToM can be observed in various clinical conditions resulting from alterations of the frontal lobe, such as antisocial personality. Some authors argue that an essential aspect of the ToM is empathy. However, this construct has not been studied in Colombian normal population with violent and criminal behaviors that have been linked to an armed conflict. This paper aims to describe some characteristics of the ToM in subjects who were involved in the armed conflict in Antioquia, with symptomatic manifestations related to violent and criminal behavior. © Revista Colombiana de Ciencias Sociales.
