A Change of Scenery: Does Exposure to Images of Nature Affect Delay Discounting and Food Desirability?

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2021
Previous research suggests that exposure to nature may reduce delay discounting (the tendency to discount larger future gains in favor of smaller immediate rewards) and thereby facilitate healthier dietary intake.

Delay discounting: Trait variable? [PDF]

open access: yesBehavioural Processes, 2011
Delay discounting refers to the tendency for outcomes that are remote in time to have less value than more immediate outcomes. Steep discounting of delayed outcomes is associated with a variety of social maladies. The degree of sensitivity to delayed outcomes may be a stable and pervasive individual characteristic.

Hunger increases delay discounting of food and non-food rewards [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
How do our valuation systems change to homeostatically correct undesirable psychological or physiological states, such as those caused by hunger? There is evidence that hunger increases discounting for food rewards, biasing choices towards smaller but ...

The effect of delay duration on delay discounting across adulthood [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journals of Gerontology: Series B, 2021
Literature about the relationship between age and delay discounting, or the willingness to wait for delayed rewards, is mixed. We posit that some of this heterogeneity may be attributable to inconsistent delay durations across studies. Here we investigate how delay duration influences discounting across adulthood by systematically varying the duration ...

Increased delay discounting tracks with a high ethanol-seeking phenotype and subsequent ethanol seeking but not consumption [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
BACKGROUND: Increased levels of delay discounting have been associated with alcoholism and problematic levels of drinking. Attempts to assess the directionality of this relationship by studying individuals with a family history of alcoholism as well ...

Delay and probability discounting of sexual and monetary outcomes in individuals with cocaine use disorders and matched controls.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Individuals with cocaine use disorders are disproportionately affected by HIV/AIDS, partly due to higher rates of unprotected sex. Recent research suggests delay discounting of condom use is a factor in sexual HIV risk.

Impulsive people have a compulsion for immediate gratification-certain or uncertain. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Impulsivity has been defined as choosing the smaller more immediate reward over a larger more delayed reward. The purpose of this research was to gain a deeper understanding of the mental processes involved in the decision making.

Brain multimodal co-alterations related to delay discounting: a multimodal MRI fusion analysis in persons with and without cocaine use disorder

open access: yesBMC Neuroscience, 2021
Background Delay discounting has been proposed as a behavioral marker of substance use disorders. Innovative analytic approaches that integrate information from multiple neuroimaging modalities can provide new insights into the complex effects of drug ...
