Publications

Joint publications of the SIG Mood & Cognition

In 2018 we published a scoping review regarding sexual dysfunctions and its rehabilitation in MS in relation to cognition and psychological issues in a peer reviewed journal. The work was funded by a RIMS grant (hyperlink: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5828449/)

In 2013 we published the Cognitive manual "Good neuropsychological practice in MS" on RIMS website (Download HERE)

In 2006 the SIG members published two booklets on RIMS Website: “Personality and behaviour” (Download HERE) and “Emotional reactions” (Download HERE)
