Key questions (answered) 1. What is theory of mind? Theory of mind is a cognitive process that leads to the understanding of one's own and others' mental states, determining their view of reality and influence on behavior. 2. What is the impact of epilepsy on the neural network of theor...
A growing body of literature views theory of mind (ToM) as a complex activity involving related but different abilities (e.g., Harrington, Siegert, & McClure, 2005; Saxe, Moran, Scholz, & Gabrieli, 2006; Tirassa, Bosco, & Colle, 2006). This reflects in the types of experimental tasks...
To address this, adolescents with TBI were compared to their typically developing peers on a social cognition task that included Theory of Mind (ToM) questions. As ToM may be necessary for the development of culture-specific social knowledge, the two groups also were compared in regard to their...
The current study examined the relations among 3- to 5-year-olds' theory of mind, inhibitory control, and three measures of suggestibility: yielding to suggestive questions (yield), shifting answers in response to negative feedback (shift), and accuracy in response to misleading questions during ...
In this module we will focus on two questions: What is the role of understanding others’ minds in human social life? And what is known about the mental processes that underlie such understanding? For simplicity, we will label this understanding “theory of mind,” even though it is not lit...
The evolutionary origins of theory of mind can be traced back in extant non-human primates; theory of mind probably emerged as an adaptive response to increasingly complex primate social interaction. This sophisticated 'metacognitive' ability comes, however, at an evolutionary cost, reflected in a ...
develop a "theory of mind"—an awareness of the concept of mental states (feelings, desires, beliefs, and thoughts), their own and those of others—before they can talk about their own past memories.Once children become capable of answering such questions as "What does it mean to remember?
The Biological Mind: A Philosophical Introduction For some, biology explains all there is to know about the mind. Yet many big questions remain: is the mind shaped by genes or the environment? If mental traits are the result of adaptations built up over thousands of years, as evolutiona......
The RHD but not the LHD patients were found to have difficulties similar to those of young children in understanding the conversational implications of test questions. Most reported that a central story character would look for a pet in the place where it was really located instead of where ...
