摘要：Delay discounting is an important part of intertemporal decision-making. This decision involves information about the costs and benefits of future possibilities, which affect people making decision. Episodic foresight therefore has a capacity to organize current action in view of anticipated events and concerns the imaginative of thinking about future events that often draw on the visual modality. In the clinic research, episodic foresight could improve maladaptive behaviors, including pathological gambling, obesity, drug and alcohol abuse. Our study explores the psychological mechanism and brain mechanism. We proposed that future research should further explore how the episodic foresight affects delay discounting and how episodic foresight is applied to clinic and behaviour modification.
