Over my years in education, one of the behaviors that has had a huge impact on students in the ability to delay gratification for a future benefit. We see it with students who skip class or cheat on a test. There are, of course, many other social areas that effect students as well. A researcher, author, and social commentator that I follow is Tim Elmore. In a recent blog post, he spoke of this topic, and the implications for a student's future success. He also speaks about ways to help students understand these implications. I would encourage you to check out Tim Elmore's post.
