Applying a Framework for More Effective District-wide School–Community Partnerships
This article explores the critical role of school–community partnerships in addressing holistic student needs and enhancing instructional efficacy. While prior research has delved into school-level factors, this study focuses on the organizational dynamics within local education agencies. We collaborate with a large district that implemented a comprehensive framework to support partnerships by aligning goals, measuring progress, and fostering eff…
Rethinking Integration of Epistemic Strategies in Social Understanding
In recent years, theories of social understanding have moved away from arguing that just one epistemic strategy, such as theory-based inference or simulation constitutes our ability of social understanding. Empirical observations speak against any monistic view and have given rise to pluralistic accounts arguing that humans rely on a large variety of epistemic strategies in social understanding. We agree with this promising pluralist approach, bu…
Implications of pretend play for Theory of Mind research
Research on the development of Theory of Mind has often focused predominantly on belief attribution, but recently moves have been made to include also other mental states. This includes especially factive mental states like knowledge, where factive Theory of Mind may turn out to be more basic than non-factive Theory of Mind. I argue that children’s early pretend play also carries important implications for Theory of Mind research. Although preten…
The Paradox of False Belief Understanding
Our ability to understand others is one of the most central parts of human life, but explaining how this ability develops remains a controversial issue, exercising psychologists and philosophers alike. Within this literature the Paradox of False Belief Understanding remains one of the main open challenges. Based on an up to date overview of the empirical and theoretical literature, this book highlights the significance of this paradox for our und…

The Situational Mental File Account of the False Belief Tasks
How can we solve the paradox of false-belief understanding: if infants pass the implicit false belief task (FBT) by nonverbal behavioural responses why do they nonetheless typically fail the explicit FBT till they are 4 years old? Starting with the divide between situational and cognitive accounts of the development of false-belief understanding, we argue that we need to consider both situational and internal cognitive factors together and descri…
Characteristics of persistently unhealthy counties
This research examines differences in white and black persistence of mortality in the United States over a period of nearly 50 years. Using data from the National Center for Health Statistics Compressed Mortality File, we calculated race-specific, all-cause age-adjusted mortality rates for ten time periods from 1968 to 2015. Counties ranking in the top 20% of mortality in at least half of the time periods are classified as persistently unhealthy.…
Persistence of death in the United States
Geographic disparities in mortality have been analyzed by place in myriad ways. Although the people who live in a place continuously change, the health characteristics of those places tend to stay the same; they are persistent. Our work analyzes persistenc
