U.S researcher Jeff Joireman has tried to explain the pattern in his research titled "Promotion Orientation Explains Why Future Oriented People Exercise and Eat Healthy: Evidence from the Two-Factor Consideration of Future Consequences-14 Scale".

The model is based on how every individual view immediate and long-term consequences of their habits.
