Resumo: | The ability to attribute to oneself and to someone else mental states as desires, intentions and beliefs, has been called theory of mind. Recent studies show links between aspects of language and acquisition of theory of mind. This study investigates the relationship between conversational awareness, seen as an aspect of the pragmatic of language, and the attribution of mental states. Twenty eight children from 4 to 6 years old, both genders and low socioeconomic level participated in it. For the assessment of conversational awareness and theory of mind, tasks from the literature were used. The results showed the effects of age in favor of older children for the two variables and a positive correlation between them. These results are discussed based on other studies in the literature. |

La habilidad de atribuir a si mismo y al otro estados mentales como deseos, intenciones e creencias ha sido denominada teoría de la mente. Investigaciones recientes muestran relaciones entre aspectos del lenguaje y la adquisición de la teoría de la mente. Este estudio investiga las relaciones entre la comprensión conversacional, vista como uno de los aspectos del lenguaje, y la atribución de estados mentales. Participaron 28 niños de 4 a 6 años, de los dos sexos y bajo nivel socioeconómico. Para la evaluación de la comprensión conversacional y la teoría de la mente fueron aplicadas individualmente tareas existentes en la literatura. Los resultados mostraron efecto de la edad a favor de los niños mayores para las dos variables, bien como una correlación positiva entre ellas. Esos resultados son discutidos considerándose otras investigaciones en la literatura. A habilidade de atribuir a si próprio e ao outro estados mentais como desejos, intenções e crenças é denominada teoria da mente. Pesquisas recentes mostram relações entre aspectos da linguagem e aquisição de uma teoria da mente. Este estudo investiga as relações entre compreensão conversacional, entendida como um aspecto da pragmática da linguagem, e a atribuição de estados mentais. Participaram da pesquisa 28 crianças de quatro a seis anos, de ambos os sexos, de nível socioeconômico baixo, distribuídas em dois grupos de idade. A coleta de dados foi feita por meio da aplicação individual de tarefas de compreensão conversacional e de teoria da mente. Os resultados mostraram efeito da idade a favor das crianças mais velhas, para as duas variáveis, bem como uma correlação positiva entre elas, o que está de acordo com achados de pesquisas anteriores.
