Impulsivity in rodents with a genetic predisposition for excessive alcohol consumption is associated with a lack of a prospective strategy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Increasing evidence supports the hypothesis that impulsive decision-making is a heritable risk factor for an alcohol use disorder (AUD). Clearly identifying a link between impulsivity and AUD risk, however, is complicated by the fact that both AUDs and ...

Discounting in pigeons when the choice is between two delayed rewards: implications for species comparisons

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2011
Studies of delay discounting typically have involved choices between smaller, immediate outcomes and larger, delayed outcomes. In a study of delay discounting in humans, Green, Myerson, and Macaux (2005) added a period of time prior to both outcomes ...

Job satisfaction has differential associations with delay discounting and risk-taking

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Low job satisfaction has been associated with both negative health and negative organizational outcomes. Knowledge on which factors influence job satisfaction remains limited.

The neurodevelopment of delay discounting for monetary rewards in pre-adolescent children

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Children are found to exhibit high degrees of delay discounting compared with adults in many delay discounting studies, which might be due to the asynchronous development of “bottom-up” and “top-down” neural systems.

Past trauma and future choices: Differences in discounting in low-income, urban African Americans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
BackgroundExposure to traumatic events is surprisingly common, yet little is known about its effect on decision making beyond the fact that those with post-traumatic stress disorder are more likely to have substance-abuse problems.

Hyperbolic discounting of delayed social interaction [PDF]

open access: yesLearning & Behavior, 2012
The temporal discounting literature has demonstrated that the loss in value for delayed outcomes is most accurately modeled using a hyperbolic discounting equation. The hyperbolic-shaped function not only describes the shape of discounting for monetary outcomes, but also for other tangibles, such as alcohol, candy, CDs, erotica, cigarettes, cocaine ...

Delay Discounting for HIV/STI Testing

open access: yesSexuality Research and Social Policy, 2023
Wait time in healthcare is an important barrier to HIV/STI testing. Using a delay discounting approach, the current study examined a systematic reduction in testing likelihood as a function of delay (wait time) until testing.In Study 1 (N = 421; data collected in 2019), participants were randomly assigned to either a chlamydia/gonorrhea group or HIV ...

Assessing Delay Discounting in Mice [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Protocols in Neuroscience, 2014
AbstractDelay discounting (also intertemporal choice or impulsive choice) is the process by which delayed outcomes, such as delayed food delivery, are valued less than the same outcomes delivered immediately or with a shorter delay. This process is of interest because many psychopathologies, including substance dependence, pathological gambling ...

Assessing the utility of a novel cortical marker of delay discounting (C-DD) in two independent samples of early adolescents: Links with externalizing pathology.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2023
Delay discounting is a well-established risk factor for risky behaviors and the development of externalizing spectrum disorders. Building upon recent work that developed a novel cortical marker of delay discounting (C-DD) in adult samples, the objective ...
