check out Jane Elliott's blue-eyed/brown-eyed experiment:




if you want to see another stanford experiment such as the OP's, check out stanford prison experiment:




obviously, shyt affects your grown ass too (like tv and the news and current events)...

also, check out the Milgram Experiment:

Ok I'm at work so I can't really hear the audio on the video but I'm curious how much time has to elapse before they get the 2nd marshmallow and are they told upfront the terms of time and not eating of the first marshmallow to get the second marshmallow?

If you all are interested in child psychology, try asking a 4 year old who has a sibling if they have a brother/sister and they'll say "yeah"

but ask them if their brother/sister has a brother/sister and they will say no, because they aren't old enough to understand someone elses point of view



i'd say no too
fukk you and your confusing ass questions
:angry:

Yes, you tell them in advance that they get an additional marshmallow if they wait the 20 minutes.

Ok thanks breh...


So adapting this "experiment" to real nikka shyt here's the scenario... :lolbron:

You get led into a dark room. The door is shut behind you and lights come up. In front of you is a stripper pole on the left side and a bed on the right. Laying on the bed is the baddest bish you ever laid eyes on. She tells you she's there to fulfill any sexual desire BUT if you wait an hour you get her and another equally bad bish(perhaps even her twin sis :ohhh: ). In the meantime she proceeds to twerk it and work the stripper pole for the hour. What do you do brehs...what do you do?!?!:lupe:

This video is why I love children. They are too cute.

i was laughing throughout the whole video. you could see the gears in the kids' heads turning while they were waiting for that lady to come back. trying to sniff the marshmallow and shyt :pachaha:

but on a side note, it kind of shows how an idle mind with just instant gratification around operates. what's worse is, imagine if the lady just said "don't eat the marshmallow" and there wasn't any reward. i doubt that marshmallow would have lasted long...
