Intertemporal Choice and Inequality [PDF]
Journal of Political Economy, 1994 The permanent income hypothesis implies that, for any cohort of people born at the same time, inequality in both consumption and income should grow with age. We investigate this prediction using cohort data constructed from 11 years of household survey data from the United States, 22 years from Great Britain, and 14 years from Taiwan.

Mathematics, 2022 Intertemporal choices are those decisions structured over several periods in which the effects only manifest themselves with the passage of time. The main mathematical reference for studying the behavior of individuals with respect to this type of ...

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 of Fuzzy Soft Sets [PDF]
, 2018 This paper first merges two noteworthy aspects of choice. On the one hand, soft sets and fuzzy soft sets are popular models that have been largely applied to decision making problems, such as real estate valuation, medical diagnosis (glaucoma, prostate ...

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.

The endowment effect in the future: How time shapes buying and selling prices [PDF]
Judgment and Decision Making, 2022 Previous research has focused on studying the endowment effect for transactions that take place in the present. Many real-world transactions, however, are delayed into the future (i.e., people agree to buy or sell, but the actual transaction does not ...
