Optimal Consumption in a Stochastic Ramsey Model with Cobb-Douglas Production Function
International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2013 A stochastic Ramsey model is studied with the Cobb-Douglas production function maximizing the expected discounted utility of consumption. We transformed the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation associated with the stochastic Ramsey model so as to ...

Delay discounting and utility for money or weight loss [PDF]
Obesity Science & Practice, 2017 SummaryObjectiveObesity is related to a bias towards smaller immediate over larger delayed rewards. This bias is typically examined by studying single commodity discounting. However, weight loss often involves choices among multiple commodities. To our knowledge, no research has examined delay discounting of delayed weight loss compared with other ...

Lessons Learned From a Delayed‐Start Trial of Modafinil for Freezing of Gait in Parkinson's Disease
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Freezing of gait (FOG) in people with Parkinson's disease (PwPD) is debilitating and has limited treatments. Modafinil modulates beta/gamma band activity in the pedunculopontine nucleus (PPN), like PPN deep brain stimulation. We therefore tested the hypothesis that Modafinil would improve FOG in PwPD.

Discounting over subjective time: Subjective time perception helps explain multiple discounted utility anomalies [PDF]
International Journal of Research in Marketing, 2015 Abstract Consumers often face choices involving intertemporal tradeoffs. Existing research suggests that, in general, decision makers do not obey discounted utility theory because their discount rates are context dependent. Recent literature incorporates decision makers' subjective perception of time into the classic discounted utility model and ...
