Temporal discounting correlates with directed exploration but not with random exploration. [PDF]
The explore-exploit dilemma describes the trade off that occurs any time we must choose between exploring unknown options and exploiting options we know well. Implicit in this trade off is how we value future rewards — exploiting is usually better in the

Neural and behavioral correlates of episodic memory are associated with temporal discounting in older adults. [PDF]
When facing decisions involving trade-offs between smaller, sooner and larger, delayed rewards, people tend to discount the value of future rewards. There are substantial individual differences in this tendency toward temporal discounting, however.

Temporal discounting and inter-temporal choice in rhesus monkeys [PDF]
Humans and animals are more likely to take an action leading to an immediate reward than actions with delayed rewards of similar magnitudes. Although such devaluation of delayed rewards has been almost universally described by hyperbolic discount ...

Striatal bases of temporal discounting in early adolescents. [PDF]
Steeper rates of temporal discounting—the degree to which smaller-sooner (SS) rewards are preferred over larger-later (LL) ones—have been associated with impulsive and ill-advised behaviors in adolescence. Yet, the underlying neural systems remain poorly

Temporal Discounting Impulsivity and Its Association with Conduct Disorder and Irritability. [PDF]
Objectives: Temporal reward discounting impulsivity (TDI) reflects a propensity to choose smaller immediate rather than larger delayed rewards relative to age/IQ-matched peers.

Hierarchies improve individual assessment of temporal discounting behavior. [PDF]
Delay discounting behavior has proven useful in assessing impulsivity across a wide range of populations. As such, accurate estimation of the shape of each individual’s temporal discounting profile is paramount when drawing conclusions about how ...

Links between autobiographical memory richness and temporal discounting in older adults. [PDF]
When making choices between smaller, sooner rewards and larger, later ones, people tend to discount future outcomes. Individual differences in temporal discounting in older adults have been associated with episodic memory abilities and entorhinal ...

Reward outcomes associated with costs like time delay and effort investment are generally discounted in decision-making. Standard economic models predict rewards associated with different types of costs are devalued in a similar manner.

Methylphenidate, but not citalopram, decreases impulsive choice in rats performing a temporal discounting task [PDF]
IntroductionDrugs targeting monoamine systems remain the most common treatment for disorders with impulse control impairments. There is a body of literature suggesting that drugs affecting serotonin reuptake and dopamine reuptake can modulate distinct ...

Temporal Discounting, Emotions and Agency
What kind of emotions could be the causes of temporal discounting and its hyperboloid curve? Not the too general category of “visceral” anticipatory emotions (Loewenstein and Lerner), but more specifically emotions related to agency (“driving ...
