Monkeys are more patient in a foraging task than in a standard intertemporal choice task. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Studies of animal impulsivity generally find steep subjective devaluation, or discounting, of delayed rewards - often on the order of a 50% reduction in value in a few seconds. Because such steep discounting is highly disfavored in evolutionary models of

Intertemporal choice and the cross-sectional variance of marginal utility [PDF]
, 2001 The theory of intertemporal choice predicts that the cross-sectional variance of the marginal utility of consumption is equal to its own lag plus a constant and a random component.

A Dynamic Tradeoff Model of Intertemporal Choice. [PDF]
, 2017 The delay discounting perspective, which assumes an alternative-wise processing of attribute information, has long dominated research on intertemporal choice. Recent studies, however, have suggested that intertemporal choice is based on attribute-wise comparison.

Intertemporal Discrete Choice [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2016 The discounted logit is widely used to estimate time preferences using data from field and laboratory experiments. Despite its popularity, it exhibits the "problem of the scale": choice probabilities depend on the scale of the value function. When applied to intertemporal choice, the problem the scale implies that logit probabilities are sensitive to ...

Towards an incentive salience model of intertemporal choice [PDF]
, 2011 This theoretical paper presents an incentive salience model of intertemporal choice. The model is a variation of the quasi-hyperbolic discounting model. Based on the distinction between ‘wanting' and ‘liking', the paper presents one possible ...

We face a myriad of choices 24/7. The first might arise early in the morning: Should I hit the snooze button for a few extra minutes of sleep, or get up on time to set out for a productive day working on a book chapter? Later, I might have to decide whether to spend my money on that new fancy gadget or put it into my savings plan, and in the evening, I

Intertemporal choice as discounted value accumulation. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Two separate cognitive processes are involved in choosing between rewards available at different points in time. The first is temporal discounting, which consists of combining information about the size and delay of prospective rewards to represent ...
