Answer: Quasi-reflective

Explanation: According to King and Kitchener's types of thinking, there is, among others, quasi-reflective thinking such as that of Mina, where she claims that knowledge is subjective, that it depends on context, so since knowledge is different as it is with Mariam, then there are different interpretations of certain events. This kind of thinking can occur when there is uncertainty about a certain knowledge, or about what is thought to be knowledge, as when Mina stated that everyone has their own truth because they were not completely sure of their claim.
