Summary/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.
