Decreasing Impatience for Health Outcomes and Its Relation With Healthy Behavior
Frontiers in Applied Mathematics and Statistics, 2018 There is a growing amount of literature suggesting people tend to behave inconsistently over time, which is driven by decreasing impatience. In addition, many studies have found relations between discounting estimates from experiments and field behavior,

Mapping the brain atrophy mediating increased impatience for reward in frontotemporal dementia [PDF]
Communications BiologyChoices involving trade-offs between larger later (LL) and smaller sooner (SS) rewards—known as intertemporal preferences—are altered in many psychiatric and neurodegenerative conditions, leading to a preference for immediate rewards. Behavioural variant

Stability of Queueing Systems with Impatience, Balking and Non-Persistence of Customers
MathematicsThe operation of many queueing systems is adequately described by the structured multidimensional continuous-time Markov chains. The most well-studied classes of such chains are level-independent Quasi-Birth-and-Death processes, GI/M/1 type and M/G/1 ...

Analysis of single server finite buffer queue under discouraged arrival and retention of reneging [PDF]
Yugoslav Journal of Operations Research, 2023 Queuing models where arrival rates go down consequent to increase in the number of customers are called systems with discouraged arrivals. Discouraged arrivals are distinct from balking in the sense that balking implies that arriving customers do not ...

Analysis of Multi-Server Queueing System with Flexible Priorities
Mathematics, 2023 In this paper, a multi-server queueing system providing service to two correlated flows of requests was considered. Non-preemptive priority was granted to one flow via the preliminary delay of requests in the intermediate buffers with different rates of ...

Measuring Impatience in Intertemporal Choice. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 In general terms, decreasing impatience means decreasing discount rates. This property has been usually referred to as hyperbolic discounting, although there are other discount functions which also exhibit decreasing discount rates. This paper focuses on

Procrastination and Impatience [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2008 There is a large body of literature documenting both a preference for immediacy and a tendency to procrastinate. O'Donoghue and Rabin (1999a,b, 2001) and Choi et al. (2005) model these behaviors as two faces of the same phenomenon. In this paper, we use a combination of lab, field, and survey evidence to study whether these two types of behavior are ...
