In a family of three siblings, Emilio, Saskia, and Yanni, Emilio is known for playing pranks. One Saturday, Emilio finds an interesting rock during his hike and decides to prank Saskia by telling her it's a rare crystal that grants wishes. Emilio hides the rock in the garden and leaves a mysterious note for Saskia, hinting at the "magic crystal's" location. Curious, Saskia finds the rock and, being somewhat gullible, starts to believe in its power. Yanni, however, observes this from the window and is aware of Emilio's tendency to play pranks but is unsure whether or not this particular situation is a prank. Later that day, when Saskia is out on an errand, Yanni confronts Emilio about the rock, and Emilio admits the truth to Yanni. Yanni decides to leave it be for now and see how it plays out. The next day, Emilio feels bad seeing Saskia so happy about her "magic crystal," so he decides to come clean, only to find Saskia is no longer at home. In Saskia's absence, does Yanni believe Saskia still thinks the rock is a magic crystal? Why or why not?
Provide a very brief response.
Yanni believes Saskia still thinks the rock is a magic crystal because Yanni has not shared with Saskia the truth that Emilio divulged about the rock being a mere prank. Since Yanni's last interaction with Saskia did not involve revealing the prank, and unless Yanni has reason to believe that Saskia discovered the truth on her own or from another source, it is logical to assume that Yanni maintains the belief that Saskia continues to be under the impression that the rock possesses magical properties. Saskia's belief remains unchallenged until she is informed otherwise. Yanni's knowledge of Emilio's confession doesn't change Saskia's state of mind unless that information is communicated to her.
