- 5Marshmallow test may measure trust, not self-controlβThe marshmallow test was not measuring self-control. It was measuring whether a child trusted the adults in their world.
A fresh challenge to the famous marshmallow test argues the classic experiment never actually measured a child's self-control. Instead, it measured whether the child trusted the adult promising a bigger reward later. If a child eats the marshmallow immediately, the reasoning goes, it may reflect learned distrust of unreliable adults rather than weak willpower. The claim is circulating widely in parenting and child development discussions, adding to earlier research suggesting family background and environment explain much of the test's results.
