Q&A With Dr Walter Mischel, author of The Marshmallow Test - ANSWERS BACK

5 replies

A child is presented with a marshmallow and given a choice: Eat this one now, or wait and enjoy two later. What will she do? And what are the implications for her behaviour later in life?

The Marshmallow Test is the fascinating new book by world renowned psychologist Walter Mischel. Dr. Mischel will be joining us for a Q&A and answering your questions about the topics in this book; delayed gratification, willpower and theory of mind - as well as what children's behaviour might indicate about their future decisions. If you have a question for Mischel do post it up on this thread.

The book giveaway is now closed.
