Delay of gratification task - Marshmallow task

Listed in ODISSEI Portal

The Delay of Gratification task aims to measure self-regulation by presenting the child with the choice between a small reward in the short-term and a larger reward in the long-term.

Description

The classic implementation of the Delay of Gratification task is the Marshmallow experiment, in which a child is presented with one marshmallow right now and is instructed that if they manage to wait for the researcher to return before eating it, they will receive multiple marshmallows later on.

Multiple implementations of the Delay of Gratification task exist, with different reward types and suitable for different populations.
