Abstract

The article is a commentary on Marchetti and Sangiuliano Intra’s theoretical paper that reviews innovative fields of investigation in the arena of Theory of Mind development. The progress of current research on the development of internal state language and on the neural bases of desire-belief reasoning is considered, and some gaps present in the literature are highlighted. The author refers to recent empirical evidence of distinct behavioural and neural patterns for imperative and declarative pointing, and briefly considers its implications for existing theories.
