Two studies are presented to examine whether and why 3-5-year-olds in Pakistan display limited social understanding. Study 1 tested 71 preschoolers on Lillard and Flavell's (1992) test of desires, pretence and beliefs, plus two false belief tasks, and showed very limited understanding across these measures even though almost half were over 5 years…

European American mothers (n = 71) and Chinese immigrant mothers (n = 60) and their children participated in the study. Maternal references to mental states and behaviors were…

Lemche, Erwin; Kreppner, Jana M.; Joraschky, Peter; Klann-Delius, Gisela – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2007
There are many postulates of a relation between quality of attachment with theory of mind and language functions (e.g., de Rosnay & Hughes, 2006). The current study examined in longitudinal design how different patterns of attachment are associated with usage of internal state language at ages 17, 23, 30 and 36 months. Transcripts of mother-child…

Krall, Vita; And Others – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 1980
Low birth weight preterm multiple birth infants do lag behind initially in mental and motor development, but they are equal in development with normal peers by the age of two. It was inferred that the multiple caretaking situation did not interfere with the infants' specific attachment to their mothers. (Author/RH)

The article reviews developmental research among Palestinians living in Gaza. The aims are, first, to analyze how exposure to traumatic events associates with children's mental health and their cognitive, emotional and social development. Second, we aimed to model familial and symbolic processes that can either harm or protect the mental health of…

Ferreira, Maria Clotilde Rossetti – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 1978
Suggests an explanation for the link between environment, malnutrition, and rate of mental development in children. It is argued that biological factors and difficult socioeconomic conditions interact to slow mental development by undermining the establishment and maintenance of a "syntonic,""synchronic," and "reciprocal" relationship between the…

Gauvain, Mary – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 1992
Studied the relationship of joint mother-child planning before and during tasks, and the ability of four and eight year olds to plan on their own. Found that older children planned more effectively, especially during tasks, and that mothers of younger children concerned themselves with task procedures rather than strategy. (MDM)
