Question 5 2/2pts
An original study (Mischel et al., 1988) gave young children a marshmallow and told the children
that if they could wait 10 minutes, they'd get an additional marshmallow. They recorded whether or
not the child was able to wait the 10 minutes. The ability to delay reinforcement was profound -
every moment longer that a child had been able to wait was associated with several markers for
success in life 10 years later. The scale of measurement for amount of time (in seconds) that
elapsed before the child ate the marshmallow is:
Ordinal
Scale
Nominal
Incorrect
Question 6 0/2pts
Dr. Huffenpuff wants to manipulate amount of sugar a child consumes to examine whether it

sugar. (Conditions were counter-balanced). The entire time, children wore activity monitors that
measured daily steps. What is the most appropriate claim that can be made based on her study’s
design?
