ROFL! From the article:
Test Two:
Delayed Reward
Subject is given a dollar and told that if he waits until the researcher returns, he can trade it for five dollars. Researcher leaves for 10 minutes or until subject calls him back.
DEVON: Called after six minutes ("I wanted to see you run back.")
DOM: Called after 10 minutes (Subject's mother notes, "He once kept his lemonade stand open eight hours to make five dollars.")
MIRIAM: Waited three minutes under the impression that it had been at least 10 ("I zoned out for a bit and had some thoughts.")
BOB: Waited zero minutes ("I don't want to do this. You're not going to come back. Screw it, I'm taking the dollar.")
CONCLUSION: The stoners were stupider than the six-year-olds. Miriam's score suggests she's dumber than a tamarin or a marmoset; research shows stoner Bob is stupider than a head injury victim.
Bwahahaha this page must be written by stoners. Look at how creative it is!
