This paper reviews the state of the art with regard to the link between decision-making and frontal symptomatology. Also discussed are the results of neuroimaging studies of decision-making. More precisely, the impact of focal frontal lobe lesions, obsessive-compulsive disorder and schizophrenia on decision-making are explored. This analysis showed inhomogeneous results, both for neurological and psychiatric studies. That calls for further investigation of decision-making skills, which will be necessary to compare patients’ performance in decision-making tasks and functional outcomes, in order to explore the ecological validity of the assessment tools.
