So here's an outline based on the research idea inspired by mitchell in 1972.
00:10
So we have a research hypothesis.
00:18
There's a positive correlation between a child's ability to delay gratification as measured by their performance in a delay of gratification test and their future academic success as indicated by their sat scores in high school.
00:43
Delayed gratification.
00:45
Next is your research strategy.
00:58
So a longitudinal study will be conducted and that's following a cohort of children from a diverse set of backgrounds and demographics tracking their performance in a delay of gratification test during early childhood and their sat scores during high school.
01:28
And then we have a research design.
01:35
So we need participants.
01:40
A large and diverse sample of children aged 4 to 6 will be recruited.
01:45
They'll be tested with a delayed gratification test such as a marshmallow test.
01:51
Number two, we need our data collection.
02:06
So children's performances in the delay of gratification test will be recorded along with their demographic info and then they'll be tracked through their educational journey up until they get their sat scores.
02:30
Three, data analysis.
02:39
Statistical analysis such as a correlation analysis will be performed to determine the relationship between early delay of gratification scores and later sat scores.
02:49
Multiple regression analysis may be employed to control for potential confounding variables.
03:19
Now we have threats to validity...
