RIP: The Marshmallow Test

Joelle - a Practical Parent

Monday, April 26, 2010 at 2:55PM

Practical Parenting recently joined Silicon Valley Moms Blog. Please come read the first post - RIP: The Marshmallow Test about why the celebrated and widely reported correlation between the marshmallow test and strong SAT scores/college performance is actually non-existant. I'd love some comments over on SV Moms.

I wrote about the marshmallow test and the merits of self-control a few months ago...if you want to catch up.
