description Theory of mind refers to the competence of attributing mind to others, and to predict and understand their behaviour in terms of mental states such as beliefs and desires. One of the main criticisms made ??to instruments measuring TM, is that their results are not reflected in the situations of everyday life. In 1994, Happe created a test trying to overcome the constraints. The aim of this paper was to generate empirical evidence contributing to the validation and Spanish adaptation of the mind theory test named Strange Stories of Happé, used to assess the capability to recognise non literal senses. Results revealed a good internal consistency of the test. The factorial analysis showed five factors that explained the 54% of the variance of data. Significant associations were found between the recognition of non literal senses and social sensibility tests. Research seeking to contribute to the knowledge of the evidence intended to explore advanced aspects of TM.

Con la finalidad de participar en las interacciones sociales, las personas necesitan comprender la existencia de estados mentales entre ellos y los demás. La teoría de la mente refiere a la competencia de atribuir mente a otros, y de predecir y comprender su conducta en función de entidades mentales como las creencias y los deseos. El objetivo del presente trabajo fue generar evidencias empíricas que contribuyeran a la validación y adaptación al español de la prueba de teoría de la mente de Historias extrañas de Happé, utilizada para evaluar la capacidad de reconocimiento de sentidos no literales. Los resultados revelaron una buena consistencia interna del instrumento. El análisis factorial mostró cinco factores que explican el 54% de la varianza de los datos. Al analizar el comportamiento conjunto del reconocimiento de sentidos no literales y las pruebas de sensibilidad social, se hallaron asociaciones significativas.
