| Research Abstract |
The terms "theory of mind" and "executive function" have been used to account for typical and atypical development (e.g., pervasive developmental disorders). Research using a structural equation modeling with adults has revealed that the individual components (inhibitory control, working memory, and set shifting) can be differentiated. However, the data from children are contradictory. The evidence suggests that inhibitory control and working memory are vital for the emergence of "theory of mind."
