Cognitive Trace-guided ToM Reasoning: Enhancing High-Order Theory of Mind in LLMs via Structured Prompt Engineering

2026-04-09

Abstract excerpt

Large Language Models (LLMs) have shown nascent Theory of Mind (ToM) capabilities, yet they still struggle with complex high-order belief reasoning in multi-agent scenarios. Existing enhancement methods are often limited to specific psychological states, require costly fine-tuning, or lack structured mechanisms for systematic hierarchical belief tracking. This paper introduces Cognitive Trace-guided ToM Reasoning...
