Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 41-5 (May 2011) . - p.667-678 Titre : Executive Function Mechanisms of Theory of Mind Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Fayeza S. AHMED, Auteur ; L.

Separate regression analyses were conducted, and EF predictors varied by ToM test. No EF domains accounted for significant variance in RMET scores; only estimated IQ scores were significant predictors of RMET performance. Verbal fluency and deductive reasoning were significant predictors of performance on the Strange Stories test, while verbal fluency, problem solving, and gender accounted for a significant variance in the Faux Pas test. Results suggest that the ToM tests each utilized differing cognitive mechanisms.
