Decision-making, impulsivity and time perception

Wittman and Paulus point to the experience of time as a core determinant of the perceived costs involved in waiting for delayed beneficial outcomes in their recent TRENDS article on delay discounting. They discuss the cognitive-processing mechanisms that determine the sense of time and include an interesting discussion of the relationships between emotional distress, decision-making and time perception.
