Abstract
Previous research indicates a relationship between Theory of Mind (ToM; the ability to discern others’ thoughts, emotions, intentions, etc.) and psychological disorders. Further, previous research has described a relationship between psychological disorders and sleep disruption. However, no existing research has examined whether sleep quality is associated with ToM. In this study, I explored that relationship in a healthy undergraduate population. To address this question, I proposed to correlate measures of ToM with measures of sleep quality.
