Abstract
Cross-informant bi-factor model results showed time discounting/future orientation was a protective factor for adolescents’ conduct and ADHD problems but a risk factor for emotion problems, while risk discounting/risk-taking was a protective factor for adolescents’ emotion and peer problems. ADHD was only associated with time discounting but not risk discounting.
