The role of impulsivity in children's estimation of physical ability
Unintentional injuries are the leading cause of pediatric mortality. One factor that appears to predict injury risk is children's overestimation of physical ability. Fifty-seven 6-year-olds judged their ability to complete basic physical tasks. Half the sample was required to wait 7 s before judging their ability; the other half was permitted to judge immediately. There were no differences in ability estimation accuracy between the 2 groups, sugg…
How Personality and Reward Relate to Automobile Drivers' Judgments of Affordances Using Their Own Vehicles
