Overall Topic
Lack of accessibility in sign language at home and at
school contributed to delay in Theory of Mind (ToM)
development in Deaf students.
*Theory of Mind development refers to the ability to
explain ones own mental states beliefs, assumptions,
intents, desires and knowledge, as well as the ability to
understand the ToM of others and that they have
differences in their mental states (Park, 2001).
