Te pongo dos sitios en los que se describe con clareza de qué se trata. Felicidades sin descuentos, P. In another study being performed by Dr. Henry Kranzler of UConn Health Center, subjects are tested on their delay discounting rates (5). Delay discounting indicates whether people are likely to be able to wait for a period of time for a larger monetary reward, or whether they will take a smaller amount of money without being able to wait. For example, subjects are offered either 10 dollars today or 50 dollars in 2 days. The choices that they make demonstrate the type of personality they have, and whether they are more likely to fall into dependent habits such as drug addictions. These personalities have been found to be genetic, which could also link addiction to genetics (5). http://serendip.brynmawr.edu/bb/neuro/neuro02/web1/trajan.ht... Heroin Addicts have Higher Discount Rates for Delayed Rewards than Non-drug-using Controls Kris N. Kirby, Nancy M. Petry and Warren K. Bickel Experimental Psychology: General, 128, 78-87 (1999) Fifty-six heroin addicts and 60 age-matched controls were offered choices between monetary rewards ($11 to $80) available immediately and larger rewards ($25 to $85) available after delays ranging from 1 week to 6 months. Participants had a 1-in-6 chance of winning a reward that they chose on one randomly selected trail. Delay-discounting rates were estimated from the pattern of participants’ choices. The discounting model of impulsiveness (Ainslie, 1975) implies that delay-discounting rates will be positively correlated with impulsiveness. On average, heroin addicts’ discount rates were twice those of controls’ (p=.004), and discount rates were positively correlated with impulsivity as measured by self-report questionnaires (p<.05). The results lend external validity to the delay-discounting rate as a measure of impulsiveness, a characteristic associated with substance abuse. http://www.williams.edu/go/sciencecenter/center/RS99html/rep... |
