The consideration of future consequences: Weighing immediate and distant outcomes of behavior.
TL;DR: This paper proposed a new construct called consideration of future consequences (CFC), which is hypothesized to be a stable individual difference in the extent to which people consider distant versus immediate consequences of potential behaviors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Positive Mood and Persuasion: Different Roles for Affect Under High- and Low-Elaboration Conditions
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the processes by which positive mood influences attitude change under high and low message elaboration conditions and found that positive mood had a direct effect on attitudes in low-elaboration conditions but influenced attitudes indirectly by modifying the positivity of thoughts in the high-enhanced conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Structural equation modeling showed that those high in CFC-Future engage in exercise and healthy eating because they adopt a promotion orientation, and future use of the two-factor C FC-14 scale is encouraged to shed additional light on how concern with future and concern with immediate consequences (proper) differentially impact the way people resolve a host of intertemporal dilemmas.
