Time Preference, Time Discounting, and Smoking Decisions [PDF]
This study examines the relationship between time discounting, other sources of time preference, and intertemporal choices about smoking. Using a survey fielded for our analysis, we elicit rates of time discount from choices in financial and health ...

ABSTRACT This research investigates how consumers establish trust in ghost kitchens, a rapidly growing digital service format that eliminates physical interaction and redefines the boundaries of food consumption. Despite their growing popularity, ghost kitchens present a paradox of trust, as the absence of physical premises and direct interaction ...

Know Thyself: Self Awareness and Utility Misprediction in Discounting Models of Intertemporal Choice [PDF]
This review critically discusses the theoretical models of discounting through a selection of papers. It will focus on the comparison between the two major models, namely discounted utility and hyperbolic discounting.

Estimating Dynamic Discrete Choice Models with Hyperbolic Discounting, with an Application to Mammography Decisions [PDF]
We extend the semi-parametric estimation method for dynamic discrete choice models using Hotz and Miller's (1993) conditional choice probability (CCP) approach to the setting where individuals may have hyperbolic discounting time preferences and may be ...

CLIMATE POLICY WHEN THE DISTANT FUTURE MATTERS: CATASTROPHIC EVENTS WITH HYPERBOLIC DISCOUNTING
Low probability catastrophic climate change can have a signifcant influence on policy under hyperbolic discounting. We compare the set of Markov Perfect Equilibria (MPE) to the optimal policy under time-consistent commitment.

Performance of Procrastinators: On the Value of Deadlines [PDF]
Earlier work has shown that procrastination can be explained by quasi-hyperbolic discounting. We present a model of effort choice over time that shifts the focus away from completion to performance on a single task.

ABSTRACT The transition towards a circular economy (CE) requires not only technological and organisational innovation but also consumer engagement in adopting circular products. A key driver of this process is consumers' stated willingness to pay (WTP) a premium, which remains constrained by psychological, perceptual and contextual barriers.

Discounting and Consumption Over an Uncertain Horizon: Draw-Down Plans for Family Trusts [PDF]
Individuals, endowments and trusts face uncertain lifetimes. When the planning horizon of an entity is stochastic and Pareto distributed, hyperbolic discounting and time-varying consumption rates are optimal. We derive expressions for the optimal rate of
