It is an important developmental capacity that fosters emotional and social functioning. Mentalization research in Iran has recently received attention; hence, findings on the development of mentalization in Iranian children are limited. Since mentalization is dependent on context and culture and develops in attachment relationships, identifying these themes in Iranian children was necessary. This study aimed to investigate the attachment-based mentalization themes in middle-aged Iranian children.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 153 Iranian children aged 8\u201311 years.
