| Abstract(in English) | The present study examined whether acquisition of Japanese particles wa and ga is related to Japanese-speaking children’s development of Theory of Mind (ToM). The result of online experiment with Japanese-speaking children aged 3 to 7 showed that children who gained higher correct rate for items about the use of wa were more likely to pass the false-belief task. This suggests that acquisition of grammatical elements related to information status might be a prerequisite to pass the false-belief task as it helps children understand other’s mind. |
