Bridging the Gap between Theory of Mind and Moral Reasoning
Astington, Janet Wilde
New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, n103 p63-72 2004
The author argues that the gap between theory of mind and moral reasoning research may be more apparent than real. The wider gap is between sociomoral cognitions and real-world behavior. She calls for research on the relation of children's mental state and moral understanding to their sociomoral behavior.
