A critical part of early childhood development is the development of
"theory of mind" (ToM), which is the ability to take the perspective of
another person. The main purpose of this book is to discuss and
integrate findings from prominent research areas in developmental
psychology that are typically studied in isolation, but are clearly
related. Two examples are whether executive functions represent a
precursor of ToM or whether ToM understanding predicts the development
of executive functions, and to what extent children's level of verbal
ability and their working memory are important predictors of
performance on both executive functioning and ToM tasks.
