Conditions
Summary
The main aim of this study is to demonstrate how disorders characterized by different types of "inflexibility", cognitive-affective type for Anorexia nervosa and motor one for Parkinson's disease, have an impact on how emotional stimuli are processed and on the transition within emotional states.

Interventions
Colored Progressive Matrices (BDM), Stroop Test (Caffarra et al., 2000), Stroop Test (Caffarra et al., 2000), Attentional Matrices (part I - Della Sala et al., 1992), Attentional Matrices (part The - Della Sala et al., 1992), Trail Making Test (Giovagnoli et al., 1996 - part A), Trail Making Test (Giovagnoli et al., 1996 - part B), Trail Making Test (Giovagnoli et al., 1996 - B-A), MMSE (Grigoletto et al., 1999), Clock Drawing - PD (Caffarra et al., 2011), Digit Span Forward (Orsini et al., 1987), Digit Span Backward (Monaco et al. , 2012), 15 Rey Words - Immediate Recall (BDM), 15 Rey Words - Deferred Recall (BDM), Phonemic Fluency (Costa et al., 2014), Semantic Fluency (Costa et al., 2014), Frontal Assessment Battery ( FAB - Apollonio et al.,2005).
STAI Y2 (trait anxiety), TEIque (153 items), STAI Y1 (state anxiety), ERQ (10 items), EISR (33 items), BDI (21 items), WLEIS (16 ITEMS), CFI (20 ITEMS ), CCFQ (18 ITEM).
Subsequently, at both T0 and T1, standardized emotional images from the International Affective Picture System (IAPS) will be administered. The images will be chosen based on the arousal-valence parameters, eliminating those with stimuli that are too salient with respect to the disorders examined. The order of administration will be organized and randomized between subjects as follows: 24 blocks of 2 minutes and for each block there will be 12 images of 10 seconds each. For the entire duration of the test, peripheral physiological parameters such as ECG, BVP, GSR, EOG, RSP and facial EMG (corrugator and zygomaticus) will also be detected, as objective measures of emotional arousal (T0-T1).
Verbal Fluencies, Tower of London, TMT-A \& B
STAI Y2 (20 items trait anxiety), TEIque (153 items), STAI Y1 (20 items state anxiety), DFlex (24 items), ERQ (10 items), EISR (33 items), BDI (21 items), TAS-20 (20 items), WLEIS (16 ITEMS), CFI (20 ITEMS), CCFQ (18 items).
the analysis of bio-humoral parameters (interleukin 6, cortisol, serotonin, catecholamines and endorphins) will be also performed through morning venous blood sampling at T0, at half of the rehabilitation process and at T1
