Abstract
In this study we aim to analyze the influence which the educational
level of a family has on the cognitive development, in general,
and on the inductive reasoning in particular, during the early
school years. In this regard, we selected 215 students whose
parents have secondary education and 117 with higher
education and we applied two tests to children from primary
schools in order to test the level of cognitive development (TIR
and PTONI). The results gathered prove that parents have a
significant influence on the development of cognitive skills.
