<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:black">Self-control is an important capacity for optimizing long term benefits. Failures of self-control also underlie many of the most difficult behavioral issues experienced by humans. Thus, studies
 of self-control, and how to improve it (if possible) have been of great value, and this is true also for comparative research about the self-control of other species. I will describe some of the research I have conducted to assess delay of gratification and
 other forms of self-control in nonhuman primates, and how those studies differ from others that may assess forms of behavioral inhibition that are not equivalent to self-control.  I also will highlight the ways in which human and nonhuman primate self-control
 may be similar or may be dissimilar, and how comparative studies shed light on better understanding human self-control.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
