Intertemporal choice in lemurs [PDF]
Behavioural Processes, 2012 Different species vary in their ability to wait for delayed rewards in intertemporal choice tasks. Models of rate maximization account for part of this variation, but other factors such as social structure and feeding ecology seem to underly some species differences.

Cultural neuroeconomics of intertemporal choice. [PDF]
Neuro endocrinology letters, 2008 According to theories of cultural neuroscience, Westerners and Easterners may have distinct styles of cognition (e.g., different allocation of attention). Previous research has shown that Westerners and Easterners tend to utilize analytical and holistic cognitive styles, respectively.

It will be worth it, in the end: a model of naturalistic intertemporal choice. [PDF]
Front PsycholIntertemporal choices, which involve consequences spread over time, often display a bias toward short-term rewards, which was recognized in ancient Greek philosophy as “akrasia.” This bias is nowadays often modelled via hyperbolic discounting models ...

Temporal discounting when outcomes are experienced in the moment: Validation of a novel paradigm and comparison with a classic hypothetical intertemporal choice task. [PDF]
PLoS One, 2021 When faced with intertemporal choices, people typically devalue rewards available in the future compared to rewards more immediately available, a phenomenon known as temporal discounting.

New paradoxes in intertemporal choice [PDF]
Judgment and Decision Making, 2011 Similar to research on risky choice, the traditional analysis of intertemporal choice takes the view that an individual behaves so as to maximize the discounted sum of all future utilities.

Time, Self & Intertemporal Choice [PDF]
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2013 Neuroscientific studies of intertemporal choice (IC) have focused mainly on the neural representation of self-control mechanisms and valuation. This reflects what has been considered as the core of the IC phenomenon.

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

A measure of inconsistencies in intertemporal choice. [PDF]
PLoS One, 2019 The aim of this paper is to derive an index able to indicate if a discount function exhibits increasing or decreasing impatience, and, even, in the last case, whether the decreasing impatience is moderate or strong. Moreover, it will be shown that the sign of this indicator coincides with the sign of the convexity index of the discount function when ...

No effects of psychosocial stress on intertemporal choice. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Intertemporal choices - involving decisions which trade off instant and delayed outcomes - are often made under stress. It remains unknown, however, whether and how stress affects intertemporal choice.

Intangibility in intertemporal choice [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2008 Since the advent of the discounted utility (DU) model, economists have thought about intertemporal choice in very specific terms. DU assumes that people make explicit trade-offs between costs and benefits occurring at different points in time.
