The relationship between future time perspective, time estimation, and impulse control in a group of young offenders and in a control group.

Abstract

There is a positive correlation between the range of future time perspective, a time estimation task, and a motor impulse control task in delinquent Israeli boys. Motor impulse control is not related for controls, nor is there a significant difference between groups on this variable. There is no relationship between intelligence and future time perspective or impulse control. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2006 APA, all rights reserved)
