Nope. No way to fake a deadline. Like setting your watch 10 mins fast to be on time ... you can't fool yourself.

Links to any solid research on psychology of deadlines? Do probabilistic deadlines work? ("earthquake prep: do it before next big one hits")

Probabilistic is an interesting idea. How to prioritize defusing a ticking time bomb, given chance of explosion & resulting destruction?

Ticking time bomb is a bad metaphor since that has a deterministic blow-up time.

But would you be able to see what time the alarm is set to without blowing up by doing so?
