Theory of Mind-based Social Competence Group Intervention

"The ToM-SCGI is designed as a group intervention, with 60-minute sessions held weekly, either once or twice, and led by trained therapists. Two caregiver meetings are conducted in the middle and end of the interventions.~The intervention process for each session is as follows:~1. Warm-up Activities(5-10 minutes): review the previous group session and prepare for the current group activities.~2. Theory of Mind Instruction(10-15 minutes): based on the developmental stage of the children's theory of mind, using thought bubbles to teach corresponding elements of theory of mind development.~3. Social Skills Group Games(30-35 minutes): design social scenario-based group games that allow children to practice applying the acquired theory of mind abilities into expressions and applications of theory of mind and social competence.~4. Summary(5-10 minutes): summarize the children's performance in the group and assign homework."
