None of the kids shown got up and moved about, a natural way of coping (the mild injunction to 'stay in the chair' easily forgotten) -- but this may be due to the video-poster's selection of which kids and what to show.
The real joke here is that we haven't changed at all. Our choices get infinitely more complex, but most people will still choose the easier path of instant gratification over the far greater possibility of hard work in the unknown.
I would have been playing with the marshmallow. I wouldnt eat the thing, but i sure as s**t wouldnt have been just sitting there for damn near half an hour lmao
I will just eat it ... then when she comes back... i will say
"You said wait but you never say do not eat the marshmallow... i sat here eating the thing while waiting for you so fucking give me another marshmallow cause you've wasted my time waiting for you BITCH!!"
@theBOOTYreport It is your decision whether or not to have watched it. You chose to watch the video, and use the three minutes of your life. It was a conscious decision you made of your own free will, no one attempted to sway you into watching it, nor did they force you. So it's completely your fault that your 3 minutes were "wasted." Therefore, you have no right to complain about it "wasting" your 3 minutes - which you would have just used to watch a different video. Stop fucking complaining.
I think the "stay in the chair" part is overlooked. Even adults, or people with no taste for marshmallow,s might fidget or pick up the marshmallow because they are not allowed to move. "were better adjusted and more dependable (determined via surveys of their parents and teachers)" I suspect there could be a placebo effect working on the adults.
@TheTCCase i concur. it's not the stupid marshmallow that is tempting, it's the 20 minutes you have to sit in the goddamn chair! yes these children will turn out to be more ADJUSTABLE and ABIDING, perfect cubicle workers.
@TheTCCase i concur. it's not the stupid marshmallow that is tempting, it's the 20 minutes you have to sit in the goddamn chair! yes these children will turn out to be more ADJUSTABLE and ABIDING, perfect cubicle workers.
@TheTCCase Naw, there's a pretty good case that the skills needed to delay gratification in this kind of experiment predict success later in life to a certain extent. Honestly it's pretty easy to see why. Delaying gratification is an important life skill that translates to much more than food. It's the kind of thing that helps you do your schoolwork and stay in shape rather than immediately gratifying yourself with something like checking facebook or youtube over and over.
Everyone knows how bad tasting marshmallows are...they are just lucky that it's been labeled "food" and we all have ate one.. that test shows how loony kids are...give me a cupcake as a kid and I would shown you the evolutionary cycle
If you tested me in this experiment... When you would return in 5 minutes to see my progress... you would see bite marks in the chair, the table is torn to pieces spread around the ground. I am using one of the metal legs to carve pictures of the marshmallow on the wall. The Marshmallow would have blood painted onto it that looks like a small face and I would be talking to it calling it Puff Puff.
