Theory of Mind (ToM) is understood as the ability to think about the thoughts, feelings, and intentions of oneself and others. Individuals with autism repeatedly fall behind on measures designed to test attribution of false beliefs, inference of others’ perspectives, beliefs, emotions, and motivations in varied social contexts, compared to their typically developing (TD) peers. This lecture will focus on a parent training intervention using book reading with scaffolded support to facilitate various aspects of ToM in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD).
