Hyperbolic Discounting is Rational: Valuing the Far Future with Uncertain Discount Rates [PDF]
Conventional economics supposes that agents value the present vs. the future using an exponential discounting function. In contrast, experiments with animals and humans suggest that agents are better described as hyperbolic discounters, whose discount ...

A new method of Bayesian causal inference in non-stationary environments.
Bayesian inference is the process of narrowing down the hypotheses (causes) to the one that best explains the observational data (effects). To accurately estimate a cause, a considerable amount of data is required to be observed for as long as possible ...

Cultural Similarities and Differences in Social Discounting: The Mediating Role of Harmony-Seeking
One’s generosity to others declines as a function of social distance, which is known as social discounting. We examined cultural similarities and differences in social discounting and the mediating roles of the two aspects of interdependence (self ...
