arXiv:2610.23722v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Understanding and simulating how subjective cognition and mental states emerge, evolve, and shape behavior is essential for advancing artificial intelligence toward deeper social cognition and general intelligence. Existing large language models (LLMs) and Theory of Mind (ToM) methods primarily infer mental states from linguistic information, lacking unified mechanisms for subjective world construction, cognitive-psychological interactions, dynamic evolution, and historical dependencies. This paper introduces the Mental World Model (MWM) and its
