“…First, while drug use is typically associated with greater delay discounting, that is not the case with marijuana. For example, tobacco [17,18], cocaine [19], and opioid [20] users have higher discounting than non-users. However, delay discounting does not differ between users and non-users of marijuana [21], suggesting that including marijuana users would not influence our results.…”

Episodic future thinking (EFT), or prospectively imagining yourself in the future, has been developed into an intervention tool to reduce delay discounting (DD), or the preference for smaller immediate over larger future rewards, and to make healthier choices that promote long-term health rather than short-term enjoyment. Most EFT interventions use EFT cues whose future events match the time delays of the DD task, which may limit the utility of EFT. The current study (N = 160, Mage = 35.25, 47.5% female) used a 2 × 2 factorial design with type of episodic thinking (matched, unmatched) and temporal perspective (EFT, episodic recent thinking (ERT)) as between-subject factors to investigate whether there were differences in DD for groups that had EFT cues matched to the time delays of the DD task in comparison to cues with unmatched temporal delays. The results showed EFT reduced DD compared to ERT controls, and no differences emerged between matched and unmatched EFT groups. Our findings suggest that either the process of generating EFT cues or the use of any positive and vivid future event, regardless of whether it is matched to the DD task, can reduce DD.

“…10 Yet, our search shows the existence of only five systematic reviews on behavioural economics-related theories, strategies, or precepts; three focusing on choice architecture interventions; 11–13 and two focusing on time discounting. 14,15 From a public policy perspective, interest in behavioural economics started to rise in the early 2000s, when the libertarian paternalism approach to public policy emerged. 16,17…”

“…These findings are concerning for policymakers who are planning to implement a national lung cancer screening programme, as lung cancer screening generally targets heavy smokers who are more likely to have higher discount rates than in the general population. 30 Indeed, most NLST-eligible individuals were men with lower income and lower educational attainment, a population that has been previously shown to be associated with higher time preferences. 31 32 The participation rates of these targeted high-risk groups are potentially worrying; in consequence, policymakers may require incentives to encourage participation and thus maximise the effectiveness of lung cancer screening when implemented.…”

ObjectivesThis study aimed to examine the effect of underlying individual preferences for the present over that for the future on lung cancer screening participation.SettingWe analysed the data from the Korean National Cancer Screening Survey in 2018.Participants4500 adults aged 20–74 years old participated in the study.DesignIn this cross-sectional survey, multivariate logistic regression analysis was carried out to examine the association between subjects’ intention to participate in lung cancer screening and individual preferences. The underlying individual preferences were measured on the basis of the self-reported general willingness to spend money now in order to save money in the future and general preferences with regard to financial planning.Primary outcome measureIntention to participate in lung cancer screening.ResultsIndividuals eligible for lung cancer screening who place less value on their future were around four times less likely to report an intention to participate in lung cancer screening than were those who valued their future (OR 3.86, 95% CI 1.89 to 7.90). A present-biassed individual (one with a tendency for immediate gratification) was also about four times less likely to report an intention to participate in screening than an individual with no present bias (OR 0.26, 95% CI 0.12 to 0.57).ConclusionsUnderlying individual preferences regarding the present and future significantly affect individuals’ intention to participate in lung cancer screening. Hence, provision of incentives may be necessary to encourage the targeted heavy smokers who may have a strong preferences for the present over future.
