After implementing neuropsychological evaluation techniques for diagnostic improvement, addresses the search for procedures that allow working on cognitive and executive deficits, as a specific therapeutic target.To characterize the presence of alterations in the domains that make up social cognition (SC) in patients with SUD and test in our healthcare units the ET® program already tested both experimentally and at beta level. It is an online self-training program for CS rehabilitation that includes modules for emotion recognition (RE), Theory of Mind (ToM) and attributional style (AS).To replicate the RCT carried out in schizophrenia in patients with SUD with difficulties in RE or ToM, in addition to searching for a biomarker or a pattern of them that predict the patient profile that will benefit from the training, using advanced LC-ESI proteomics techniques. MS/MS in saliva since previous studies in a population with schizophrenia, subjected to different neurorehabilitation therapies. It is also intended to subsequently improve the instrument (ET®) through the implementation of big data analysis and machine learning and the introduction of automated user management. At this level, the objective is to determine, after the first games, the type of game and the intensity required to improve the user's performance until it reaches normality.From the perspective of the State Plan for Scientific and Technical Research and Innovation, this project combines CLINICAL AND TRANSLATIONAL RESEARCH, based on the evidence of scientific and technological knowledge, and the use of ENABLING TECHNOLOGIES of e-health in the area of Health Services.
