Keyword: Self-Control

Abstract: We examined how nursery sound environments affect toddlers’ inhibitory control. Thirty-eight Japanese children (1–3 years) experienced quiet–noisy–quiet conditions. Delayed gratification success decreased after noise exposure but improved in quiet. Results suggest that appropriate sound environments support toddlers’ inhibitory control.
