ARBELAEZ CARO, Joan Sebastián et al. Differences in a theory of mind task between women with and without criminal behavior. Psychol. av. discip. [online]. 2020, vol.14, n.2, pp.107-120. Epub 11-Abr-2021. ISSN 1900-2386. https://doi.org/10.21500/19002386.4898.
It is intended to establish to establish differences in scores on a theory of mind (ToM) task in women with and without a history of criminal behavior and to indicate the level of prediction of the theory of mind on antisocial behavior. The study is the result of a search on research in the field that shows the importance of understanding the factors associated with antisocial behavior, mainly the ToM. On the other hand, there is not enough documentation on the functioning of ToM, specifically in women. The study was conducted from an empirical analytical, comparative-predictive approach. Sample: 68 women participated, 34 with criminal records and 34 without. A characterization card and the Gaze Test were applied. Significant differences were found in the ToM task for the two groups (With criminal record X̄= 22.97 [SD= 4.75] vs Without criminal record X̄ = 25.50 [SD = 3.87]; U = 406,500; P = 0.03). The ToM predicts criminal behavior (OR = 1,152; 95% CI [1,017 to 1,306]; P = 0.02). From the findings, it is concluded the importance of the theory of mind for cognitive neuroscience, given its modulating and predicting value of risk behaviors.
