Fig. 2: Integrating theory of mind and theory of computing to inform geriatric psychiatry.

Framework connecting concepts from Theory of Mind (ToM) and Theory of Computing (ToC) to their implications in geriatric psychiatry. *NP problems: P problems can be solved quickly; NP problems can be verified quickly but may be much harder to solve. Whether P equals NP remains an open question. “P” stands for polynomial time, and “NP” stands for nondeterministic polynomial time, meaning they can be solved in polynomial time on a hypothetical nondeterministic machine—essentially, by guessing a solution and then verifying it.
