“…The basic subscale score of the ToMI-2-C was employed for examination of the convergent validity due to the target age group in the present study. The ToMI-2-C is a comprehensive daily ToM performance measure that can reflect developmental progression, and it also has high internal consistency (Cronbach's α = 0.96), appropriate test-retest reliability (ICC = 0.88), moderate convergent validity (0.43-0.59), and good discriminative validity for differentiating children with autism spectrum disorders and those with typical development (Lee et al, 2021(Lee et al, , 2023Chen et al, 2023).…”

IntroductionTheory of mind (ToM) refers to the ability to understand and attribute mental states to oneself and others. A ToM measure is warranted for preschool children to assess their ToM development from a multidimensional perspective (i.e., cognitive and affective dimensions). This study aimed to develop the Preschool Theory of Mind Assessment (ToMA-P) and to evaluate its construct validity and applicability.MethodsThe ToMA-P was developed based on comprehensive literature review and revised with expert panel feedback. Its psychometric properties were evaluated in 205 typically developing preschoolers with Rasch analysis for its dimensionality, item difficulties, and convergent validity.ResultsThe results indicated that all ToMA-P items, except for one, fit the hypothesized two-dimensional construct. The item difficulties in the cognitive and affective dimensions followed developmental sequences. The ToMA-P scores exhibited good convergent validity, as evidenced by its significant correlations with age, verbal comprehension, adaptive functions, and daily ToM performance (p < 0.05). Children’s responses and behaviors also showed that the ToMA-P has good applicability.DiscussionThis study provides empirical evidence that the ToMA-P measures cognitive and affective ToM following developmental sequences, and that it has potential as a clinical tool for assessing ToM in preschool children.
