Definition(s)

  • Time orientation is principally the tendency to emphasize or prefer a certain time horizon in one's domain of attitudes, actions, and perspectives, that is, a dominance of the past, present, or future. Time orientations can influence individuals' behaviors and intertemporal decisions in diverse situations as a result of individuals' unique “time personalities,” which ultimately guide perceptions, choices, and allocations of activities over time.
