The study summarizes 10 years of research on cognitive impairments in schizophrenia. In the visual system expressed impairments to the magnocellular pathway can be observed that are related to Gestalt organization, to the processing of complex visual stimuli, to perceptual distortions and supposedly to mentalization. Disorders in lateral connectivity and the M-pathway deficit may provide a neurocognitive marker for schizophrenia.

Is it possible to investigate moral decisions with the modern tools of neuroscience? On the one hand, social and moral functions are severely impaired in some clinical conditions, including antisocial personality disorder and behavioral disturbances associated with focal brain damage. On the other hand, functional neuroimaging methods allow the mapping of a complex brain network activated during the processing of moral situations. In this paper the author reviews current neurocognitive and social cognitive models of moral judgements, including cognitive control, somatic markers, social response, mentalization, and moral sensitivity. In conclusion, results suggest that, besides the brain areas responsible for 'rational' control processes, a specific network (pericingular cortex, superior temporal sulcus, anterior temporal cortex) of social cognition plays a crucial role in moral decision-making.
