Neuropsychology of religion allows a scientific openness to the explanation of the religious phenomenon, and its impact on psychism. This document attempts a re flection, which gives an account of this close relationship, and influence exerted by religious practice on mental health and the development of neuropsychological functions in people. This relationship is strengthened by contemporary discoveries of cognitive neuroscience and anthropology.

Palabras clave : Neuropsychology; Executive Functions; Empathy; and Psychology of Religion.
