Learn the research behind delay discounting

About the Course

While choosing smaller-sooner rather than larger-later may be a common preference, is this a factor of our learning history, our lifetime development, or our genetic expression? This week, Dr. Amy Odum stops by to review how the study of delay discounting can support better understanding of socially-relevant problems like gambling and addiction in humans. But first: We’re talking about rats in operant chambers! This episode is available for 1.0 CEU.
