“…The findings are less consistent with their alternative buffering hypothesis, according to which concern with future consequences should be the best predictor of self-control (i.e., a concern with future consequences should buffer a person against self-control failure). Daugherty and Brase (2010) also measured the relation between delay discounting (measured with the Monetary Choice Questionnaire; Kirby, Petry, & Bickel, 1999) and time perspective (measured with the ZTPI and CFC scales). Like Joireman et al (2008), they found significant but small correlations (all rs < .2) between delay discounting and all measures of time perspective.…”

“…Even though time perspective and delay discounting appear similar, they are not overlapping constructs (Daugherty and Brase 2010). Despite the conceptual similarities, the few studies attempting to compare future time perspective and delay discounting do not give reason to suppose a robust relation between them (Teuscher and Mitchell 2011).…”

“…Despite the conceptual similarities, the few studies attempting to compare future time perspective and delay discounting do not give reason to suppose a robust relation between them (Teuscher and Mitchell 2011). In particular, Joireman and colleagues (2008) found a positive correlation between delay discounting and the Immediate subscale of the CFC, and a negative association between delay discounting and scores on the CFC Future scale (for similar results, see Daugherty and Brase [2010]). Finally, Steinberg et al (2009) found a significant but modest positive correlation between delay discounting and future orientation.…”

Risk-Taking, Delay Discounting, and Time Perspective in Adolescent Gamblers: An Experimental Study

Previous research has demonstrated that adult pathological gamblers (compared to controls) show riskproneness, foreshortened time horizon, and preference for immediate rewards. No study has ever examined the interplay of these factors in adolescent gambling. A total of 104 adolescents took part in the research. Two equal-number groups of adolescent non-problem and problem gamblers, defined using the South Oaks Gambling Screen-Revised for Adolescents (SOGS-RA), were administered the Balloon Analogue Risk Task (BART), the Consideration of Future Consequences (CFC-14) Scale, and the Monetary Choice Questionnaire (MCQ). Adolescent problem gamblers were found to be more risk-prone, more oriented to the present, and to discount delay rewards more steeply than adolescent non-problem gamblers. Results of logistic regression analysis revealed that BART, MCQ, and CFC scores predicted gambling severity. These novel finding provides the first evidence of an association among problematic gambling, high risk-taking proneness, steep delay discounting, and foreshortened time horizon among adolescents. It may be that excessive gambling induces shortsighted behaviors that, in turn, facilitate gambling involvement.

“…Furthermore, extreme patterns of temporal biases might negatively affect health-related behaviors. For example, individuals who are strongly biased toward the present might not consider the future consequences of their acts by decreasing risk perception of behaviors such as smoking, substance use, or physical inactivity (e.g., Adams & Nettle, 2009;Apostolidis, Fieulaine, Simonin, & Rolland, 2006;Boyd & Zimbardo, 2005;Daugherty & Brase, 2010). The relevance of a biased TP in abnormal psychological functioning has also been suggested by several authors indicating that TP could be considered a core feature of some psychiatric disorders such as depression and suicidal ideation (Laghi, Baiocco, D'Alessio, & Gurrieri, 2009;van Beek, Berghuis, Kerkhof, & Beekman, 2011).…”

Título: ¿Hasta qué punto está relacionada la personalidad con la perspectiva temporal? Resumen Estudios recientes han analizado los correlatos conductuales de la perspectiva temporal (PT), sugiriendo que esta diferencia individual influye en muchos comportamientos relacionados con la salud, tales como el consumo de tabaco y otras sustancias, la actividad física o la satisfacción vital. Se sugiere que una PT consistentemente sesgada hacia un determinado marco temporal está asociada con algunos trastornos psiquiátricos y también está mediada por determinados factores de personalidad. Sin embargo, son escasos los estudios que han explorado la relación entre personalidad y PT, y ninguno de ellos bajo una perspectiva psicobiológica. El objetivo de este estudio fue examinar la relación entre el Inventario de Perspectiva Zimbardo Time (ZTPI) y Zuckerman-Kuhlman Personality Questionnaire (ZKPQ) en una muestra de 196 estudiantes universitarios a través de un análisis de regresión múltiple. Los resultados mostraron que: el pasado negativo correlaciona positivamente con el Neuroticismo-Ansiedad y negativamente con la Actividad; el presente hedonista correlaciona positivamente con la Impulsividad-Búsqueda de Sensaciones y la Sociabilidad en un grado muy alto, y el futuro correlaciona positivamente también con el Neuroticismo-Ansiedad y la Actividad, y negativamente con la ImpulsividadBúsqueda de Sensaciones. Los resultados se discuten en términos de la definición de ambas escalas, sus relaciones y sus implicaciones en campos aplicados. Palabras clave: Personalidad; perspectiva temporal; ZKPQ; ZTPI.Abstract: Recent research has focused on behavioral correlates of temporal perspective (TP), suggesting that this individual difference has an influence on many health-related behaviors such as smoking and substance use, physical activity or life satisfaction. It is suggested that a consistently biased temporal orientation is associated with some psychiatric disorders and mediated by personality factors. However, few studies have explored the relationship between personality and TP from a psychobiological approach. The aim of the study was to examine the relationship between the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory (ZTPI) and the ZuckermanKuhlman Personality Questionnaire (ZKPQ) in a sample of 196 undergraduate students through a multiple regression analysis. Results showed that: Past-Negative correlated positively with Neuroticism-Anxiety and negatively with Activity; Present Hedonistic correlated positively with Impulsive-Sensation Seeking and Sociability in a very high degree; and Future correlated positively with Neuroticism-Anxiety and Activity, and negatively with Impulsive-Sensation Seeking. Results are discussed in terms of the definition of both scales, their relationships and their implications in applied fields.
