"Impulsivity refers to the tendency to act quickly without fully considering the consequences, often leading to risky or inappropriate behavior. [...] Impulsivity is a complex trait that can affect decision-making, emotion regulation, and self-control.
"There are several types of impulsivity.
▪️*Motor impulsivity* involves acting without thinking, such as blurting out answers or interrupting others.
▪️*Attentional impulsivity* is characterized by difficulty staying focused and being easily distracted.
▪️*Choice impulsivity* refers to a preference for smaller immediate rewards over larger delayed ones, reflecting difficulty with delaying gratification.
▪️*Cognitive impulsivity* involves making decisions quickly without adequately processing available information."
