In the light of research that show that there are differences in reading digital texts and paper print ones, especially when reader’s metacognitive awareness is concerned, and that high levels of metacognitive understanding are needed for inferring about story character’s mental states and eventually for reading comprehension, it is my opinion that more research should be done on theory of mind and reading from digital media, instead of paper – in regard to development of theory of mind and in theory of mind assessment process.

My interests are therefore in Develeopmental aspect of reading work group in the impact of digitally presented texts on children’s metacognitive development, and in the Experiential/emotional aspects of reading work group in the impact such text have on the emotional aspect of theory of mind development.
