Aresearcher gave identical puzzles to five-year-old children in two groups, group a and group b. the children in group a were promised candy if they completed the puzzles quickly and well. the children in group b were not promised a reward but were encouraged to do the best that they could. if the researcher argues that overjustification occurred, what would most likely happen during the experiment?

Group A did not work as hard or as well as group B and would be less likely to spontaneously work on similar puzzles in the future.

As per the question Group A is externally motivated to do work, it would unlikely that they engage in such a similar activity in the future.
