1. The Relation between Acquisition of a Theory of Mind and the Capacity to Hold in Mind.

Author

Gordon, Anne C. L. and Olson, David R.

Abstract

Tested hypothesized relationship between development of a theory of mind and increasing computational resources in 3- to 5-year olds. Found that the correlations between performance on theory of mind tasks and dual processing tasks were as high as r=.64, suggesting that changes in working memory capacity allow the expression of, and arguably the formation of, a theory of mind.
