Locey, Matthew L.; Rachlin, Howard – Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior, 2012
Humans often make seemingly irrational choices in situations of conflict between a particular smaller-sooner reinforcer and a more abstract, temporally extended, but larger reinforcer.

Traditional behavior management discourages…
