In this episode of Brainy Bits 90, we revisit the famous “marshmallow test” to see if kids today are better at waiting than kids from the 1960s. A new study published in Developmental Psychology suggests modern kids might actually be more patient—but why? We look at what’s changed over the decades, from how kids grow up to what kinds of snacks they find tempting. Spoiler alert: when I asked my little sister if she’d wait for a marshmallow, she just said, “I’ve had better.” Ouch. Brainy Bits 90. OCF.
