This book reports new findings associating learners' willingness to
delay gratification with their academic achievement, motivation for
learning, and use of cognitive and self-regulated learning
strategies. This book calls the attention of learners, parents, and
educators to the vital role that delay of gratification plays in
every aspect of learning. In today's society, a learning experience
cannot be successful without learners giving up immediately
available and less valuable rewards for the sake of attaining
long-term academic goals. Here, delay of gratification is
conceptualized under the umbrella of self-regulation of learning,
which represents students' ability to control their feelings,
cognition, and behavior in order to attain academic goals, select
appropriate learning strategies, and monitor and evaluate their
academic progress. This book reports new findings associating delay
of gratification with positive academic outcomes such as
self-regulation of learning, self- efficacy beliefs, intrinsic
motivation, use of cognitive strategies, and time management.
