吸烟者受教育程度较低,比不吸烟者更有可能低估未来的回报。我们评估了77名接受戒烟治疗的吸烟者的延迟折扣与教育水平之间的关系。受教育程度对计算机任务和问卷的折扣测量有影响,没有大学折扣延迟奖励的被试比受过大学教育的被试显著(P < 0.01)多。在两项任务中,受试者对小奖励的折扣大于对大奖励的折扣(P < 0.001)。结果表明,受教育程度与吸烟者的折扣率呈负相关。(C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd.版权所有。
Smokers are less educated and are more likely to discount future rewards than nonsmokers. We assessed the relationship between delay discounting and education level in 77 smokers entering smoking cessation treatment. There was an effect of education on computer task and the questionnaire measures of discounting, with participants having no college discounting delayed rewards significantly (P < .01) more than those attending college. Subjects discounted small rewards more than large rewards for both tasks (P < .001). Results show that education level is inversely associated with discounting in smokers. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd.
