Researchers have used event-related brain potential (ERP) studies and brain-imaging techniques such as fMRI to investigate the neurological basis of theory of mind (Savvagh et al., 2009). They have focused on the prefrontal cortex area of the brain because it is a likely location for processing the tasks used to assess theory of mind and because it undergoes rapid growth in the late preschool period. In one study, researchers examined activity in the prefrontal cortex when children were given false-belief tasks (Liuet al., 2009). Children 4 to 6 years old were shown a cartoon story and asked to make judgments about the character's mental states (beliefs) and reality. The structure of all trials was the same. They began with a cartoon character, such as Garfield the cat, standing next to two boxes and two animals. Then the Cartoon character put one animal in one box and the other animal in the other box and walked in front of the boxes so that he could not see into either one. Next, one of the animals in the boxes jumped out of the box and either moved to the other box or went back into the same box. Children were asked to make a reality judgment ("Really, where is the animal?") and a think judgment ("Where does Garfield think it is?") while the researchers continuously recorded their brain activity using a network of 128 electrodes embedded in an elastic helmet.
