Decision Making and Impulsivity in Young Adult Cannabis Users

Frontiers in Psychology, 2021
Aims: Chronic cannabis users show impairments on laboratory measures of decision making which reflect risk factors for initiation and continued use of cannabis. However, the differential sensitivity of these tasks to cannabis use has not been established.

A Fast Diagnosis Method of Escalator Reversal Faults Based on Dynamic Information and Multiattribute Decision-Making

Journal of Mathematics, 2021
There are many reasons for escalator reversal failure, and the reasons are distributed in different locations. It is difficult to locate the specific location of the fault in the actual fault troubleshooting.

Choice reversal without temptation: A dynamic experiment on time preferences [PDF]

Journal of Risk and Uncertainty, 2015
We study intertemporal choices through an experiment run over multiple dates and we show that intertemporal behavior is affected by additional drivers beyond impatience and present-biased preferences. By eliciting a subject’s plan and tracking its implementation over time, this dynamic design helps our understanding of time inconsistency through the ...

Preference reversal in risky choices under time pressure [PDF]

, 2009
In three studies, we examine the phenomenon that time pressure leads risky decision-making to a reversal of the usual preference. In Study 1, participants with positive (negative) affect were risk-seeking (risk-averse) when there was no time pressure ...

Time pressure reverses risk preferences

Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes, 2015
Abstract In this research, we offer the hypothesis that time pressure reverses risk preferences. That is, people are typically risk-averse over gains and risk-seeking over losses, as predicted by prospect theory, but we propose that people under time pressure are risk-seeking over gains and risk-averse over losses.

HCN channel inhibitor induces ketamine-like rapid and sustained antidepressant effects in chronic social defeat stress model

Neurobiology of Stress, 2023
Repeated, long-term (weeks to months) exposure to standard antidepressant medications is required to achieve treatment efficacy. In contrast, acute ketamine quickly improves mood for an extended time.

Antidepressant and anxiolytic-like activities of the dichloromethane/methanol extract of Crateva adansonii in mice exposed to chronic mild stress

Notulae Scientia Biologicae, 2023
Crateva adansonii (CA) is traditionally used in the treatment of epilepsy and memory loss. This work aims to evaluate the antidepressant and anxiolytic activities of the dichloromethane/methanol extract of CA trunk bark in a chronic unpredictable stress-
