“…However, TD has been found to be associated with these individual characteristics by many others. First, age effects on TD have been found consistently in both real and hypothetical monetary TD tasks (Green et al, 1994;Olson et al, 2007;Scheres et al, 2006;Steinberg et al, 2009). However, Reynolds (2006) suggests that real TD tasks may be better suited for use with children because the choices are less abstract compared to hypothetical TD tasks.…”

“…We estimated full scale IQ on the basis of four subscales of the WISC-III, but we were not able to extract an estimate of the verbal and performal IQ. Olson et al (2007) suggested that the association between IQ and TD is driven solely by verbal aspects of intelligence.…”

“…TD is a natural phenomenon that can be observed in both humans and animals (Green & Myerson, 2004). TD is affected by a range of characteristics of individuals, such as IQ (de Wit, Flory, Acheson, McCloskey, & Manuck, 2007;Olson, Hooper, Collins, & Luciana, 2007) and age (Green, Fry, & Myerson, 1994;Scheres et al, 2006). It appears altered in a number of mental health conditions (Ahn et al, 2011;Bickel & Marsch, 2001;Reynolds, 2006).…”

It has been shown that delayed consumable rewards are discounted to a higher degree than money, which has been referred to as the "domain effect". Until now the effects of reward type on temporal discounting (TD) have mainly been studied in adults. Although there is evidence that children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) tend to show steeper TD of money than typically developing peers or children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD), it remains untested whether the domain effect is also seen in children with ADHD and ASD. To explore this we compared TD of children (8-16y) with ADHD, ASD and typically developing controls with five different reward types. Seventy-two participants with ADHD, 69 with ASD and 130 controls performed two hypothetical TD-tasks: a monetary TDtask and a TD-task with one of four alternative rewards (material rewards, rewarding activities, food, social rewards). TD was seen for all reward types, but the rate of discounting was steeper for food, praise and rewarding activities compared to money, and for food and praise compared to material rewards. For the ADHD and control groups, but not the ASD group, money and material rewards were equally highly discounted. High correlations between TD of money and of activities, food and material rewards were found. In conclusion, a domain effect was observed in typically developing children, as well as in children with ADHD or ASD, although the pattern was somewhat different for ASD children. Despite this domain effect, there is also evidence for a domain-general aspect in TD.

“…An alternative explanation is offered in the meta-analysis by Shamosh & Gray (2008), which showed that taking into account non-verbal intelligence resulted in only a slight increase in the relationship between intelligence and temporal discounting. We can therefore assume that high verbal intelligence is what primarily facilitates the use of verbal strategies helping to maintain self-control (Olson, Hooper, Collins & Luciana, 2007).…”

ArticleSocial discounting rate is negatively correlated with fluid intelligence Personality and Individual Differences Suggested Citation: Osiński, Jerzy; Ostaszewski, Paweł; Karbowski, Adam (2014) : Social discounting rate is negatively correlated with fluid intelligence, Personality and Individual Differences, ISSN 0191-8869, Elsevier, Amsterdam, Vol. 59, pp. 44-49, http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.paid.2013 The purpose of the study was to verify a hypothesis, inspired by the handicap principle, of a positive relationship between subjective value of a hypothetical monetary reward shared with others and the level of fluid intelligence. Manipulation involved the amount of reward to be shared (small vs. large amount) and subject's relationship to recipients (related vs. unrelated). As expected, a positive correlation was found between the subjective value of a reward to be shared with others, measured as the area under the curve for the discounting function and Raven Advanced Progressive Matrices scores, but the relationship was only present for rewards shared with relatives. In addition, participants who made altruistic choices in all items scored higher in RPM than those who were not as consistent.The implications of results for the evolutionary interpretation of the relationship between intelligence and altruism are discussed.

Objective: Nowadays there has been growing interest in the "hot" aspects of the executive functions related to the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC), in particular in the affective decision-making process in children and adolescents. We reviewed the available literature about the evaluation of decision making in children and adolescents. Method: We searched for papers published from 2000 to 2009 that studied children and/or adolescents until the age of 16 in the Lilacs and PubMed index. The papers were analyzed according to the paradigms used in the studies, the conclusions about the development of the decision-making process, and the ability to distinguish between the clinical population and the controls. Results: Thirty-six papers were selected. Compared to the amount of studies of adults, there are still few studies focusing on children and adolescents. Several versions derived from the IGT were developed in order to study decision-making processes in children and adolescents. Discussion: The IGT is the most used instrument. In preschoolers, simplified versions have been used with greater frequency. The different paradigms are useful in differentiating between normal and psychiatric disorder patients. The results are positively and significantly related to the frequency of impulsive behaviors in nonclinical populations. FG, et al. / Rev Psiq Clín. 2011;38(3):106-15 Keywords: Decision-making, Iowa Gambling Task, executive functions, cognitive development. Mata ResumoObjetivo: Atualmente, tem havido um interesse crescente nos aspectos "quentes" das funções executivas relacionados ao córtex orbitofrontal, em particular na tomada de decisão afetiva em crianças e adolescentes. Revisamos a literatura sobre a avaliação da tomada de decisão em crianças e adolescentes utilizando o paradigma do Iowa Gambling Task e derivados. Método: Pesquisamos artigos publicados de 2000 a 2009, indexados no Lilacs e no PubMed e que estudaram crianças e/ou adolescentes até 16 anos. Os artigos foram analisados de acordo com os paradigmas utilizados nos estudos, as conclusões sobre o desenvolvimento no processo de tomada de decisão e a capacidade de distinção entre a população clínica e os controles. Resultados: Trinta e seis artigos foram selecionados. Os estudos envolvendo crianças e adolescentes ainda são poucos quando comparados àqueles realizados com população adulta. Foram desenvolvidas diversas versões derivadas do paradigma IGT a fim de estudar a tomada de decisão em crianças e adolescentes. Conclusão: O IGT é o instrumento mais utilizado. Em pré-escolares, versões simplificadas têm sido utilizadas com maior frequência. Os diferentes paradigmas se mostram úteis na diferenciação entre sujeitos normais e com transtornos psiquiátricos. Os resultados se relacionam de forma positiva e significativa com a frequência de comportamentos impulsivos em populações não clínicas.
