Logical Modelling of Leslies Theory of Mind

摘要：

Results of functional imaging of brain activity indicate that there is a brain component that handles theory of mind processes which lead to humans being able to work out the beliefs, desires, intetions and pretences of others. Leslie postulates a theory of mind that involves a decoupling process allowing a person to infer, for example, anothers intentions etc. We model this theory of mind mechanism using first-order modal logic and give an example of a scenario involving pretence which uses the necessity and pretence modalities.
