Predicting adolescent cognitive and self-regulatory competencies from preschool delay of gratification: Identifying diagnostic conditions
Shoda, Mischel and Peake, Developmental Psychology 26(6), 1990, 978-986. Preschool children from a university community took part in experiments that varied features of the self-imposed delay situation. In the conditions identified as most informative, seconds of delay in preschool correlated with cognitive and academic competence and with coping with frustration and stress in adolescence.
