Temporal expectations in delay of gratification
We examined how temporal expectations influence preference reversals in a delay of
gratification task for rats based on a hypothesis of Rachlin (2000), who suggested that …

Testing delay of gratification in rats using a within‐session increasing‐delay task
In delay discounting, preference reversals refer to shifts in preference from a larger‐later
reward to a smaller‐sooner reward. Steep hyperbolic discounting predicts a preference …

Females in the forefront: Time-based intervention effects on impulsive choice and interval timing in female rats
SL Stuebing, AT Marshall, A Triplett, K Kirkpatrick - Animal cognition, 2018 - Springer
Impulsive choice has been implicated in substance abuse, gambling, obesity, and other
maladaptive behaviors. Deficits in interval timing may increase impulsive choices, and …

Learning to wait for more likely or just more: greater tolerance to delays of reward with increasingly longer delays
Little research has focused on training greater tolerance to delays of rewards in the context
of delayed gratification. In delayed gratification, waiting for a delayed outcome necessitates …

Sensitivity to changing contingencies in an impulsivity task
Using a video‐game‐based escalating interest task, participants repeatedly encountered a
reward that gradually increased in value over a 10‐second interval. Responding early in the …

Outcome probability versus magnitude: When waiting benefits one at the cost of the other
Using a continuous impulsivity and risk platform (CIRP) that was constructed using a video
game engine, choice was assessed under conditions in which waiting produced a …

Learning when to wait and when to act
ME Young, BC Howatt - Learning & Behavior, 2022 - Springer
Choosing how long to wait in order to optimize reward is a complex decision. We embedded
these decisions within a video-game environment in which the amount of reward smoothly …

A delay discounting task produces a greater likelihood of waiting than a deferred gratification task
A first‐person‐shooter video game was adapted for the study of choice between smaller
sooner and larger later outcomes to compare the behavioral patterns produced by deferred …

Waiting when both certainty and magnitude are increasing: Certainty overshadows magnitude
TL Webb, ME Young - Journal of Behavioral Decision Making, 2015 - Wiley Online Library
In everyday decision making, people often face decisions with outcomes that differ on
multiple dimensions. The trade‐off in preferences between magnitude, temporal proximity …
