Theory of mind is the understanding that other people have mental states that drive their actions and that those mental states can be different from one's own. Without understanding theory of mind and being able to take others' perspectives, it could be difficult for children to read and understand narrative texts. This paper posits that…

Kim, Young-Suk Grace; Dore, Rebecca; Cho, Minkyung; Golinkoff, Roberta; Amendum, Steven J. – Grantee Submission, 2021
We investigated the relations among theory of mind (ToM), mental state talk, and discourse comprehension. Specifically, we examined the frequency of mental state talk in children's oral recall of narrative texts and informational texts as well as relations among ToM, mental state talk (inclusion of mental state words in the recall of narrative and…

McIntyre, Nancy S.; Oswald, Tasha M.; Solari, Emily J.; Zajic, Matthew C.; Lerro, Lindsay E.; Hughes, Claire; Devine, Rory T.; Mundy, Peter C. – Grantee Submission, 2018
Background: Many individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) exhibit social cognitive impairments in the development of theory of mind (ToM), or the ability to attribute mental states to oneself and others. ToM has been shown to relate to reading comprehension for children and adolescents with typical development (TD) and with ASD. This study…

Kim, Young-Suk Grace – Grantee Submission, 2019
We investigated 2 hypotheses of a recently proposed integrative theoretical model of reading, the direct and indirect effects model of reading (DIER; Kim, 2017b, 2019): (a) hierarchical relations and (b) dynamic relations (or differential relations) of skills to reading comprehension. Students were assessed on reading comprehension, word reading,…

Taboada Barber, Ana; Vizcaya-Jofré, Francisca; Klauda, Susan Lutz – Grantee Submission, 2021
Theory of Mind (ToM), as a relevant aspect in children's socio-cognitive development, has been widely studied. Some results have suggested that bilingual children have an advantage over their monolingual peers in development of ToM. However, there is less research regarding the predictive role of ToM in performance of oral and reading…

Kim, Young-Suk Grace – Grantee Submission, 2015
The primary goal was to expand our understanding of text-reading fluency (efficiency or automaticity): how its relation to other constructs (e.g., word reading fluency, reading comprehension) changes over time and how it is different from word-reading fluency and reading comprehension. The study examined (a) developmentally changing relations…
