•Tager-Flusberg & Sullivan, 1995:Ability to interpret one ’s own and others ’ action ascausally linked to representational and other kinds ofmental states(Bruner, 1986 « landscape of consciousness »)
•Perner, Frith, Leslie & Leekman (1989):Ability to conceive of mental states in oneselfand othersAbility to attribute false beliefs
