This capacity, often labeled “theory of mind,” consists of an array of psychological processes that play essential roles in human social life.

Second, the self is a motivated agent, who acts upon inner desires and formulates goals, values, and plans to guide behavior in the future. Third, the self eventually becomes an autobiographical author.
