Abstract

Delay discounting, or the preference for smaller, immediate rewards over larger, delayed rewards, has been associated with numerous psychological disorders, including substance and alcohol abuse. The present study assessed delay discounting in 500 participants over a 13-year period ending in either adolescence or emerging adulthood, using the Monetary Choice Questionnaire (MCQ) and a behavioral task. This research sheds light on the link between delay discounting and alcohol abuse, particularly in the critical developmental period between middle childhood and emerging adulthood.
