Primes

• Ethnocentrism
  • Research on theory-of-mind mechanisms

    This sourceArgues theory of mind should be decomposed into basic component processes (including automatic attribution and controlled perspective-taking) then reconstructed.

    Supported in partVerified against the work's full text

    Schaafsma et al. propose decomposing ToM into component processes and mention automatic vs deliberative forms, but offer a programme, not an identification of the systems, and say nothing about ethnocentrism.

    “we sketch a broad research programme rather than tackle its implementation.”

Verification

Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.

Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
