This research aimed to investigate the relationships between adolescence’s encounter strategies, the extent of social support and academic achievement. The participants (n= 360) were randomly selected from Shiraz high schools’ students. The results showed that there were significant positive relationships between social support and problem-directed and affect-directed encounter strategies. The results also showed that social support had significant negative relationships with avoidance encounter strategy and having less effective strategies. The academic achievement had significant positive relationships with social support and the problem-directed strategies. Regression analysis results also showed that among various encounter strategies and social support, the problem-directed encounter strategy was a significant predictor of the academic achievement as dependent variable.

Children's understanding of mind has recently attracted great attention in developmental psychology. In the new wave of research in this area, it has been argued that human beings are equipped with a certain capacity through which understand others. This capacity or what is called "theory of mind" is an ability to impute mental states to self and others. According to this literature, by having a mentalistic understanding of behaviors, a person can appreciate, explain, and predict other's behaviors. The processes and mechanisms involved in theory of mind reasoning and their developments have been extensively studied during last two decades. The false-belief reasoning tasks as standard tests in measuring theory of mind ability generally show that children about 4 and 5 years are able to succeed in such tasks. Accordingly, it has been argued that children before 4 years have an undeveloped understanding of mind. Theory-theory, modularity and simulation approaches each describes theory of mind specifically. In the following paper, the theory-theory, the modularity, and the simulation's perspectives on processes and mechanisms involved in theory of mind have been explained
