Answer:

FALSE

Step-by-step explanation:

Punishment might indeed be less effective if it takes long to happen. Specially when the subject disassociates the punishment that is being received and the cause of the punishment. Therefore, this idea of waiting one hour to apply an effective punishment is not true.
