Abstract：
The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has extremely harmful effects on individual lifestyles, and at present, people must make financial or survival decisions under the profound changes frequently. Although it has been reported that COVID-19 changed decision-making patterns, the underlying mechanisms remained unclear. This mini-review focuses on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on intertemporal choice, and potential psychological, biological, and social factors that mediate this relationship. A search of the Web of Science electronic database yielded 23 studies. The results showed that under the COVID-19 pandemic, people tended to choose immediate and smaller rewards, and became less patient. In particular, people with negative emotions, in a worse condition of physical health, or who did not comply with their government restriction rules tended to become more \"short-sighted\" in behavioral terms. Future studies should examine more longitudinal and cross-cultural research to give a broad view about the decision-making change under the COVID-19 pandemic.
摘要：
冠状病毒病(COVID-19)对个人生活方式有极其有害的影响，目前,人们必须经常在深刻的变化下做出财务或生存决策。尽管有报道称COVID-19改变了决策模式，潜在机制尚不清楚.这项小型审查的重点是COVID-19大流行对跨期选择的影响，和潜在的心理，生物，以及调解这种关系的社会因素。对WebofScience电子数据库的搜索产生了23项研究。结果显示，在COVID-19大流行下，人们倾向于选择即时和较小的奖励，变得不那么耐心了。特别是,有负面情绪的人，在身体健康状况更差的情况下，或者不遵守政府限制规则的人在行为上往往会变得更加“短视”。未来的研究应该检查更多的纵向和跨文化研究，以广泛了解COVID-19大流行下的决策变化。
