Tom test-R

The ToM - Theory of Mind- test-R is one of the few standardized instruments that measures the construct of ToM (Theory of Mind ) at each of the three levels of its development: (1) Prerequisites of ToM (pretense, differentiating between the physical and mental world, emotion recognition); (2) first manifestations of ToM (first order belief and false belief) and (3) highest level of ToM (second order belief). With the help of a structured interview consisting of 14 test items (requiring about 20 minutes to administer), information is collected regarding the manner in which children between the ages of 4-12 process social understanding, insight, and sensitivity.
The ToM test-R was specifically designed to use with children with Autism Spectrum Disorders, but can certainly be used with other children between the ages of 4 and 12.
The manual accompanies the workbook with photos and test items. The CD-ROM offers the scoresheet and the workbook in 5 other languages besides English: German, French, Italian, Spanish, and Arabic.
