The study aims to describe how children worldwide progress through a sequence of theory of mind understandings in their development of insights into persons and minds. The focus is on the studies using Wellman and Liu's (2004) Theory of Mind Scale. A comprehensive search was run in PsycINFO, PsycArticles, Child Development & Adolescent Studies, Education Abstracts, Family & Society Studies Worldwide, and Social Sciences Abstracts. The dataset includes 91 studies using Wellman and Liu's (2004) Theory of Mind Scale.
In a broad sense, this dataset explores morphological and phonological processing in English monolinguals and two bilingual populations, Chinese-English and Spanish-English, using a battery of standardized and self-developed behavioral measures, as well as fNIRS neuroimaging.

The dataset includes 51 children (age range = 6-12 years) who listened to the first chapter of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland during fNIRS neuroimaging. We also provide the text of the story with several word-by-word predictors motivated by research in Theory of Mind development and language. These annotated, naturalistic datasets can be used to replicate prior work and test new hypotheses about everyday social cognition and natural language comprehension in the developing brain.
