One of the classic tests of mentalizing ability is the false-belief task, in which subjects must be able to represent their own beliefs (true) and another's beliefs, which are false because they have not been given complete information, such as not having seen the transfer of a piece of candy from one drawer to another. People with Asperger syndrome succeed at the verbal form of the false-belief task, yet\n                    <jats:bold>\n                      Senju\n                      <jats:italic>et al.<\/jats:italic>\n                    <\/jats:bold>\n                    (p.\n                    <jats:related-article xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" ext-link-type=\"doi\" page=\"883\" related-article-type=\"in-this-issue\" vol=\"325\" xlink:href=\"10.1126\/science.1176170\">883<\/jats:related-article>\n                    , published online 16 July) show that this is owing entirely to their having learned how to cope with an existing and still demonstrable deficit in an implicit version of the false-belief task. That is, the core impairment is present, but conscious and explicit learning allows them to compensate.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1126\/science.1176170","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2009,7,16]],"date-time":"2009-07-16T21:44:35Z","timestamp":1247780675000},"page":"883-885","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":562,"title":["Mindblind Eyes: An Absence of Spontaneous Theory of Mind in Asperger Syndrome"],"prefix":"10.1126","volume":"325","author":[{"given":"Atsushi","family":"Senju","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Brain and Cognitive Development, Birkbeck, University of London, London, UK."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Victoria","family":"Southgate","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Brain and Cognitive Development, Birkbeck, University of London, London, UK."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sarah","family":"White","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience, University College London, London, UK."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Uta","family":"Frith","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience, University College London, London, UK."},{"name":"Center\u00a0of Functionally Integrative Neuroscience, Aarhus University, Aarhus University Hospital, Norrebrogade 44, Building 10 G, 800 Aarhus C, Denmark."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"221","reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_2_2_2","unstructured":"U.
