Weighting the Waiting: Intertemporal Social Preferences
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2022This paper studies intertemporal social preferences. We introduce intertemporal dictator and ultimatum games where players decide on the timing of monetary payoffs. The setting is two-dimensional rather than one-dimensional, in the sense that inequalities can arise in the time as well as in the social dimension.

Theory and Decision, 2004This paper connects two tracks of previous research: revealed preference theory and intertemporal decision making. It demonstrates that, in contrast to static decision frameworks, in dynamic settings the Weak Axiom of Revealed Preference is not sufficient for a perfect correspondence between an agent's observed choices and the unobservable preferences ...

Separable Preferences over Intertemporal Opportunities
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2015In this paper we provide an axiomatic characterization of separable preferences over intertemporal opportunities satisfying “existences of a dummy alternative”. The two properties of preferences over intertemporal opportunities that implies and is implied by separability are the following: (i) if for some opportunity set one alternative chosen along ...

Estimating Intertemporal Preferences for Natural Resource Allocation
American Journal of Agricultural Economics, 2005In this article, we show how the degree of risk aversion, discounting, and preference for intertemporal substitution for a natural resource manager can be structurally estimated within a recursive utility framework. We focus on the management of a reservoir in California, and test the data for consistency with a recursive utility model specification ...

This is partly explained by a high discount rate ultimately leading to low social status. This paper establishes causation in the opposite direction, with a relatively low social status position leading to a relatively high discount ...

Asset Allocation Is Intertemporal Preference
2018Asset allocation is an exercise in subjective intertemporal preference. Saving and investing demand that we understand this preference, our liquidity needs, and the macroeconomic and institutional context we live in. But we have simply lost that understanding and instead follow regulations. Under the current paradigm, for instance, expected returns are

On the recoverability of intertemporal preferences
Economics Letters, 1980Abstract In the absence of futures markets, a consumer's complete set of intertemporal demand functions may not be revealed. Under mild regularity conditions, the multiperiod utility function that generates the observable demand functions is shown to be unique in the class of additively separable and stationary functions.

The health consequences of intertemporal preferences
2017Intertemporal tradeoffs, the conflict between current and future costs and benefits, lie at the core of health decisions. An extensive literature on time discounting has documented the widespread tendency to place a lower value on distant outcomes and to favor benefits in the moment.
