Lost ground, lost value: Investigating the relationship between soil erosion and agricultural land value

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines the impact of soil erosion on agricultural land values in the United States (US) Midwest. Based on a novel county‐level panel data set with information on soil erosion levels and agricultural land values covering five census years (1997, 2002, 2007, 2012, and 2017), we separately investigate the direct effect of two types ...

‘Shelter is a Dignity’: Rental Racism, Stress and Housing (In)justice

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Australia's private rental sector is in crisis, and culturally and racially minoritised renters face compounded harms through both covert and everyday direct forms of rental racism. Drawing on five community‐based focus groups in Melbourne (n = 37), the paper explores how racism manifests across the rental pathway and how it structures the ...

Spontaneous neural activity in the three principal networks underlying delay discounting: a resting-state fMRI study

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry
Delay discounting, the decline in the subjective value of future rewards over time, has traditionally been understood through a tripartite neural network model, comprising the valuation, cognitive control, and prospection networks.

The neuroanatomical correlates of individual differences in delay discounting: A voxel-based morphometry study

open access: yesJournal of Pacific Rim Psychology, 2019
Delay discounting refers to the reduction in the present value of a future reward as the delay to that reward increases, which is related to various problematic behaviors, such as substance abuse. In this study, we explored the neuroanatomical correlates

Caudate responses to reward anticipation associated with delay discounting behavior in healthy youth

open access: yesDevelopmental Cognitive Neuroscience, 2014
Background: Choices requiring delay of gratification made during adolescence can have significant impact on life trajectory. Willingness to delay gratification can be measured using delay discounting tasks that require a choice between a smaller ...

Preference in Asynchronous Presentation of Stimuli [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
A self-control procedure that involved a later onset of a stimulus signalling a small reinforcer within the waiting time for a larger reinforcer was investigated to determine a point of shifting preference and a discounting function as the delay ...

Synergistic Effect on Enhanced Oil Recovery in High Salinity Carbonate Reservoirs Using a Novel PEI‐Functionalized Carbon Nanotube Nanocomposite

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Enhancing oil recovery (EOR) in mature reservoirs is hindered by high interfacial tension (IFT) and oil‐wet rock formations, especially under harsh, high‐salinity conditions. This study aims to overcome these limitations by synthesizing a novel carbon nanotube nanocomposite covalently grafted with polyethylenimine and non‐covalently ...

Designing and Validating a Novel Method for Assessing Delay Discounting Associated With Health Behaviors: Ecological Momentary Assessment Study

open access: yesJMIR Formative Research
BackgroundDelay discounting quantifies an individual’s preference for smaller, short-term rewards over larger, long-term rewards and represents a transdiagnostic factor associated with numerous adverse health outcomes. Rather than

The hippocampus encodes delay and value information during delay-discounting decision making

open access: yeseLife, 2020
The hippocampus, a region critical for memory and spatial navigation, has been implicated in delay discounting, the decline in subjective reward value when a delay is imposed.

A delay-discounting primer.

open access: yes, 2010
Given the importance of research findings and the potential of further research to aid in the prediction and control of impulsivity, the primary focus of this chapter (and this book) is on choice and the failure of future events to affect current decisions.
