This paper investigates the effects of framing in intertemporal choice by elementary school children. Sutter, Yilmaz, and Oberauer (2015) recently demonstrated that intertemporal choice in children is malleable with respect to simple defaults. Using a similar approach, we replicated their study. We also found that children are more willing to select the immediate option in (standard) control frames than in alternative ones that appear to promote delay of gratification. This finding is consistent with previous experiments on children as well as adults and may have implications for cultivating the ability to delay gratification in individuals.

本文研究了框架对小学生跨期选择的影响。Sutter，Yilmaz和Oberauer（2015）最近证明，就简单的违约而言，儿童的跨期选择具有延展性。使用类似的方法，我们重复了他们的研究。我们还发现，与在其他方面似乎会促进满足感延迟的孩子相比，孩子们更愿意在（标准）控制帧中选择即时选项。这一发现与先前对儿童和成人所做的实验一致，并且可能对培养个人延迟满足的能力有影响。
