Summary

This study tests whether a mobile app game can help impulsive 3-6 year olds learn to wait for bigger rewards. About 50 children with high impulsivity will either play the training game or be placed on a waitlist. The goal is to see if the app can improve self-control, which could help kids do better in school and with friends.
