Save the best for last II: Whether one saves the best for last depends on outcome category
Castillo, Sun, Frank-Crawford, Rooker and Borrero found close correspondence between hypothetical and real outcome rankings in college students though generated sequences varied more; among four preschoolers, two saved the best for last with academic items and none with leisure items, and the children mostly interspersed more and less preferred activities. Behavior Analysis: Research and Practice 22(2), 164-178, 2022.
