Popis:	We propose an effective exponential model of delay discounting considering fluctuation in impulsivity. This model is seen to be dual to the two-parameter Tsallis model of delay discounting proposed by Takahashi in 2007. We demonstrate that the parameters of the model can be related to the mean and the variance of impulsivity. Our findings provide an intuitive way to explore the origin of the Tsallis distribution in a social system. Comment: 7 pages, 2 figures
