Low IQ people can't imagine or think of examples

I vaguely remember reading a study or a video talking about a study that tried to assess LA convicts, low IQ, ability to imagine. It would ask them some questions, like:
>John has an apple, and Jane has no apples. If John gave Jane the apple, how many apples would Jane have?
And they would answer something like
>Zero.
When asked why, they would say
>John has the apple.
>Yeah, but if he gave it to Jane, how many apples will Jane have?
And they would have just a hard time thinking about it.
This is a very vague memory of the topic, but I remember reading it somewhere or watching it.

They would just have a hard time thinking about hypotheticals or answering them correctly.

Because, just now, I was talking to my dad about warranties and coverage services some companies give, where they would sell you an item slightly more expensive for more years in warranty, and asked
>If there is a company that sells the warranty after you bought the product-
>That doesn't exist.
>Yeah, but if-
>No, no. That is impossible. I never saw a store or company do that.
>Yeah, yeah. Sure. But if a company-
>If doesn't mean it's real.

It was rather frustrating, but it made me think of that study. I tried looking it up but couldn't find it.
