Can You Hear What I’m Thinking? The Role Of Audition And Language In The Development Of Theory Of Mind

22 June 2021

Having a matured concept of Theory of Mind (ToM) is essential in managing relationships and social communications as it allows a person to better predict and explain another person's thoughts and behaviors. Children with hearing loss, like children with Autism, have shown to have delayed (ToM) development, however, largely attributed to the lack of access to conversations around them.  At the end of this talk, participants will be able to:

• Describe how "overhearing" and incidental learning play a role in ToM development.
• Describe how to facilitate ToM development through parent guidance and the use of Auditory-Verbal strategies.
