In the TED talk "Insight Into the Teenage Brain" Adriana Galván discusses the adolescent brain and how it changes everyday. Galván spoke about how adolescent brains aren't fully developed, the frontal cortex is developing until the mid 20s, since this is the part of the brain involved in decision making, teenagers are more likely to make risky decisions. She also discussed a study she conducted in which three different age groups (kids, teens, and adults) were given rewards and the teenage brain responded the most to them. Teenage characters in the Crucible, like Abigail and her group of friends liked to be rewarded also. When they “caught” a witch they were praised immensely, which they reacted to by accusing more and more people to receive more praise. The teenage brain is still developing, so some things teens do aren't rational, but when rewarded, can be swayed to do things more likely to reward them once more.

Honest
"In her life, sir, she have never lied. There are them who cannot sing and them who cannot weep--my wife cannot lie."
John was willing to stake his life on the fact that Elizabeth was honest and told the truth.

Prideful
“Because it is my name! Because I cannot have another in my life! Because I lie and sign myself to lies! Because i am not worth the dust on the feet of them that hang! How may I live without my name?”
If John would've swallowed his pride and signed the confession he would've be sparred his life.

Manipulative
“ Let either of you breathe a word about the other things, and I will come to you in the black of some terrible night and I will bring a pointy reckoning that will shudder you.”
The root of Abigail's power is her manipulation of others.
