This article examines the relationship between delay discounting and abstinence self-efficacy among individuals in recovery from substance use disorders. Abstinence self-efficacy refers to a person’s confidence in their ability to avoid substance use in challenging situations. The findings suggest that people with more impulsive decision-making patterns may also report lower confidence in maintaining abstinence. This supports the importance of strengthening both behavioral self-control and recovery confidence as part of long-term recovery support.
