Psychedelic Use and Behavioral Addictions
Recent clinical trials on classic psychedelics for depression and anxiety have raised questions about their potential to treat other psychiatric conditions. Evidence from pre-clinical and clinical research suggests psychedelics may help with substance use disorders, with ongoing registered trials. Behavioral addictions, sharing features with substance addictions, may also respond to psychedelic treatment. This study examined self-reported symptom…
Compulsive Buying Tendencies
Compulsive buying behavior is typically viewed as pathological, but recent research has shown that compulsive buying tendencies are associated with attitudes toward money, personal financial behavior, and having materialistic values, suggesting that compulsive buyers are manifesting an extreme form of habits shown by people in general. In a study of 240 community residents, scores on the Compulsive Buying Scale were associated positively with sco…
Compulsive Buying Tendencies and Personal Finances
In a community sample of 225 adults, scores on the Compulsive Buying Scale were associated with scores on the subscales of the Executive Personal Finance Scale (rs = -.35 to -.70) and the Money Attitudes Scale (positively with using money for impressing others, and negatively with saving and planning). The results suggested that common tendencies toward compulsive buying may not be pathological, but merely associated with attitudes toward money i…
Gambling and Delaying Rewards as a Function of Current Mood
In a sample of 92 undergraduates, current mood was not associated with choosing to accept a delayed but larger reward or with gambling for a larger reward
Personality Correlates of Financial Behavior
In a sample of 98 students, scores for extraversion, neuroticism, psychoticism, and a Lie scale were associated with financial behavior, with Lie subscale scores providing the majority of the significant but weak associations
Normative Data and a Short Form of the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale
The Barratt Impulsiveness Scale is one of the most commonly used scales to measure impulsivity. It has demonstrated validity in several neuropsychiatric populations and correlates with objective neuropsychological measures and impulsivity-related behaviors in healthy individuals. Neuroimaging studies show that BIS scores relate to prefrontal structure and function, as well as central serotonergic function. This study reports normative data and de…
Correlations among Executive Function Scales and Positive Psychological Attributes in College Students
Scores on executive function scales were correlated with scores on attributes of positive psychology. Values were positive among gratitude, satisfaction, and the executive function scales of motivational drive, empathy, and strategic planning. If replicated and extended, such data may predict academic success in college students as in 13- to 14-yr.-olds
The Executive Personal Finance Scale: Item Analyses
A scale devised to measure executive personal money management was examined for its factorial structure using 138 college students. On the whole, the factor analysis confirmed the subscale structure of the scale, but the Planning subscale appeared to consist of two distinct components, investment behavior and saving behavior
Measuring the Executive Regulation of Emotion With Self-Rating Scales in a Nonclinical Population
Prefrontal systems play an important role in the regulation of emotion as evidenced by clinical neuroimaging studies. Both subjective and objective neuropsychological tests provide functional evidence of executive dysfunction in emotional deregulation. The present authors evaluated these relationships here in a nonclinical community sample using the Frontal Systems Behavior Scale, Profile of Mood States (POMS), and Depression Anxiety Stress Scale…
Prefrontal Cortex Dysfunction and Income: A Study in Neuroeconomics
In four samples of adults, individual income was negatively associated with a measure of prefrontal cortex dysfunction even after implementing controls for age, sex, and education. The small association was stronger for men than for women. These results provide support for a neuroeconomic approach to the study of micro-economic variables

Income was negatively associated with the mood states of confusion and tense in a sample of 406 community residents, but controls for age, sex, and education eliminated these associations
Neurotransmitter-Related Personality Traits and Money Attitudes: A Study in Neuroeconomics
In a sample of 82 undergraduates, the personality dimension of novelty seeking, which has been hypothesized to be influenced by levels of dopamine in the central nervous system, was associated with attitudes regarding money
Depression, Anxiety, and Personal Finance Behavior: Implications for the Classical Economic Conception of Humans as Rational Decision-Makers
In a sample of 138 college students, the personal finance behaviors of impulse control and organization were negatively associated with the use of recreational drugs and with scores on measures of depression, mania, and anxiety
Correlations Among Measures of Executive Function and Positive Psychological Attributes in College Students
Executive functions are cognitive abilities that allow for more goal-oriented and autonomous behavior. The authors examined the relationship between self-rated executive functions and 3 positive personality attributes (satisfaction with life, gratitude, and forgiveness) in a nonclinical community sample. The authors used self-report scales (Executive Function Index, Heartland Forgiveness Scale "other" subscale, Satisfaction With Life Scale, and t…
Consistency of the Yamauchi/Templer Money Attitude Scale
In a sample of 139 community residents, three of the four subscales from the Yamauchi and Templer Money Attitude Scale were replicated
Money Attitudes and Personality
In a sample of 67 students, neuroticism scores were associated with money attitude scores. The higher the neuroticism score the higher the impulsivity and the lower the motivational drive, organization, and planning scores
Reliability of a Brief Credit Card Attitude Scale
In a sample of 139 community residents, the three subscales from the brief Hayhoe, et al. credit card attitude scale were replicated in a factor analysis

Credit Card Use and Prefrontal Cortex Dysfunction: A Study in Neuroeconomics
In a study of 100 students, no associations were found between a measure of the prefrontal system dysfunction personality with credit card use and attitudes
