About the Book :
This book attempts to examine the relationship between the children acquisition of language and their development of theory of mind. With the help of an extensive research on Oriya language and acquisition of mental state vocabulary among Oriya speaking children, it addresses the major issues pertaining to development of a theory of mind and mental state language. It deals with the development of mental-representational language, the role of socio-cultural variables in the acquisition of mental-representational words, and the cognitive as well as academic implications of acquiring a set of mental state words. The book will be of great help to researchers and students from diverse disciplines like early, education, educational psychology, child psychology and psycho-linguistics.
