As for the interview mentioned above, it was clear that Participant #1 is more likely his
cognitive functions, so as formal thinking, negations, and logic as well as their social
skills are well developed. They are, however, very context sensitive at this age.  On the
other hand, Participant #2, he used only one heuristic to decide on an answer instead of
going through the whole question.
