The Theory of Mind |
Watch the following
short film, theory of mind.mov (Links to an external site.)Links to an
external site. (transcript), which demonstrates the theory of mind using a juice box experiment.
At around four years of age, a fundamental change occurs in children’s
understanding of others’ behaviors or what is also called theory of mind. Using your knowledge from our readings,
watch the video to determine which stage both Jacob and Patrick are currently
in respectively.
Discuss both Jacob’s and Patrick's reaction to the "mean monkey."
What stage would Erickson say each child is in? How do these different stages
influence their values and attitudes? Do you think it is possible for a child over
the age of three to have trouble understanding that his or her beliefs can be
false? Explain your reasoning.

child.
