A relatively large literature suggests that hypothetical and potentially real monetary rewards yield similar patterns of responses in delay (DD) and probability (PD) discounting. However, the much smaller literature concerning hypothetical versus potentially real cigarettes is more mixed and the generalizability of findings from both of these literatures outside the United States is unclear. The present study extended research comparing hypothetical and potentially real delayed and probabilistic monetary and cigarette outcomes to adult smokers (N = 59) in the Czech Republic using a within-subjects design. Comparison of hypothetical versus potentially real outcomes across tasks revealed Czech smokers discounted the value of potentially real cigarettes (but not money) more steeply than hypothetical cigarettes on the DD, but not PD, task. Findings also suggest a gender effect in which male participants discounted the value of money and cigarette outcomes more than did women for DD (but not PD). The relevance to methodological factors, cultural factors, and gender effects in discounting are discussed.

相对大量的文献表明，假设的和潜在的实际货币奖励会在延迟（DD）和概率（PD）折现中产生相似的响应模式。但是，关于假想卷烟和潜在实际卷烟的文献要少得多，而且在美国以外的这两个文献中得出的结论的普遍性尚不清楚。本研究扩大了对成年吸烟者比较假想的和潜在的实际延迟和概率性金钱和香烟结局的研究（N= 59）在捷克共和国使用主题内设计。跨任务的假设和潜在实际结果的比较显示，捷克吸烟者比DD（而非PD）任务上的假设香烟（而不是金钱）的价值折价幅度更大。研究结果还表明，性别差异导致男性参与者对DD（而不是PD）比金钱和香烟结局的折价要高得多。讨论了折扣中与方法因素，文化因素和性别效应的相关性。
