Summary
Are behaviors innate, or are they shaped by our surroundings?David Epstein poses this question as he examines the person-situation debate through the lens of the famed marshmallow test, an experiment in the self-control of children. Simple strategies can be taught to help delay gratification, which suggests our personality traits can undergo change depending on context.
