PSY 445 - Theory of Mind Across Cultures


Children develop an understanding of their own and others’ minds during their early years. This is evidenced by their growing sophistication in conversation, deception, and pretend play. There appear to be universal as well as culture-specific ways in which children develop their skills in this domain. This course will examine how children from infancy to school age, in different cultural contexts, develop an understanding of mind. A GE-certified statistics course must be completed prior to enrollment. Formerly PSY 345.
