Even if the insights from big data analysis prove valid, optimal methods to integrate them effectively into healthcare delivery are unknown. Clearly, the conversion of big data hype to reality will require significant work.

Engagement in fantasy worlds might advance ToM because engaging in alternative worlds is similar to imagining the world from others’ viewpoints. Fantasy might also be related to preference for describing others’ mental states. To test these theories, we examined relations...
