In the experiment in which college students learned a program of study skills based on planning and self-control (such as dividing tasks into smaller, concrete goals; creating a study schedule;
and keeping a diary of their study time), how did the students compare with the control group?
What will be an ideal response?
Answer: The students who learned the study skills studied for more hours. They also were less likely to smoke or drink alcohol, less likely to leave dirty dishes or laundry around, and more likely to eat healthier foods. When the students practiced self-control in one area, they improved their self-control overall.
