It can be argued that gratification delay is more psychology related than genetics. And while it can be found a pattern on genes, probably it will be falsified like happened before with these kind of experiments.
- yasp 8y agoHow could you possibly argue that without studying the question?
- popnroll 8y agoI never said to ignore the question. Experiments require resources which are limited. And after the falsification of intelligence genes, it makes sense to find a psychological cause for delay of gratification first, and test other logical explanations second. Edit: I was wrong. Reading Wikipedia article (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heritability_of_IQ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heritability_of_IQ), it seems intelligence is related to both genes and enviroment.
- danieltillett 8y agoI want to praise you for taking the time to admit that you were wrong about a topic you didn't know much about. It is something that is seen far too infrequently in this world.
