I am interested in programing an automatically adjusting procedure. For example, I would pose a question "Would you rather have $50 now or $100 in a week." If $100 in a week is chosen, the now amount is adjusted by a specific percentage for the following question. Is this at all possible without having to write all the possible pathways using the branching command? Thank you!

Yes, it is certainly possible. What you describe appears to be a typical delay discounting procedure, several of which are available from the Task Library (cf. http://www.millisecond.com/download/library/DelayDiscountingTask/).
