Some students were told to eat radishes and forbidden to eat the cookies, although a plate of fresh cookies was on the table.

Others were told to eat the cookies and leave the radishes alone. The students were told to taste their assigned food while the researchers left.

CRTC "They were basically told: Keep going until you drop," Bratslavsky told the annual meeting of the American Psychological Association yesterday. Students who resisted the temptation to snack on forbidden cookies only worked on the puzzle an average of eight minutes before giving up.

Those who gave in to temptation were able to persist for an average of 20 minutes.

The students were told they were helping out on a taste test and were asked to show up a NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING 4 If Notice of Public Hearing 1996-9.
