情景式未来思维（Episodic Future Thinking，简称EFT）减少了延迟折扣（delay discounting，简称DD; preference for small，immediate rewards）和各种适应不良行为。探索EFT的潜在个性化，以优化其改变DD和对不健康饮食者需求的能力，对于开发针对长期改善和维持健康的干预措施非常重要。在这项调查中，使用两个独立的研究，我们研究了EFT的影响，有和没有一个健康目标的折扣率，需求，香烟和快餐的吸烟者和肥胖个体的渴望，分别。使用从亚马逊土耳其机械（mTurk）收集的数据，研究1（N=189）检查了EFT对DD的影响以及吸烟者的香烟需求和渴望的测量，这些吸烟者被随机分配到三种条件之一：EFT健康目标，EFT一般或情节性近期思维（ERT）一般。研究2（N=255），采用2×2析因设计，研究了健康目标和一般EFT对DD的影响，以及随机分配到四种条件之一的肥胖个体的快餐需求和渴望的措施：EFT-健康目标，EFT-一般，ERT-健康目标或ERT-一般。健康目标EFT在减少货币折扣方面并不比一般EFT更有效。然而，与没有健康目标的EFT相比，在一般EFT中添加健康目标与对香烟和快餐需求强度和弹性的更高影响显著相关。这些发现表明，通过纳入健康目标来扩大未来思维可能会促进健康的决定，并导致积极的行为改变。
Episodic Future Thinking (EFT) reduces delay discounting (DD; preference for smaller, immediate rewards) and various maladaptive behaviors. Exploring potential personalization of EFT to optimize its ability to alter DD and demand for unhealthy reinforcers is important for the development of interventions targeting long-term improvement and maintenance of health. In this investigation, using two separate studies, we examined the effects of EFT with and without a health goal on rates of discounting, demand, and craving for cigarettes and fast food among cigarette smokers and obese individuals, respectively. Using data collected from Amazon Mechanical Turk (mTurk), Study 1 (N=189) examined the effect of EFT on DD and measures of cigarette demand and craving in cigarette smokers who were randomly assigned to one of three conditions: EFT-health goal, EFT-general, or Episodic Recent Thinking (ERT)-general. Study 2 (N=255), using a 2×2 factorial design, examined the effects of health goals and general EFT on DD and measures of fast food demand and craving in obese individuals who were randomly assigned to one of four conditions: EFT-health goal, EFT-general, ERT-health goal or ERT-general. Health-goal EFT was not more effective than general EFT in reducing monetary discounting. However, the addition of a health goal to general EFT was significantly associated with higher effect on intensity and elasticity of demand for cigarettes and fast food compared to EFT without a health goal. These findings suggest that the amplification of future thinking through the inclusion of a health goal may promote healthy decisions and result in positive behavior changes.
