A neuroeconomic theory of rational addiction and nonlinear time-perception [PDF]

open access: greenNeuro Endocrinol Lett. 2011;32(3):221-225, 2011
Neuroeconomic conditions for "rational addiction" (Becker and Murphy, 1988) have been unknown. This paper derived the conditions for "rational addiction" by utilizing a nonlinear time-perception theory of "hyperbolic" discounting, which is mathematically equivalent to the q-exponential intertemporal choice model based on Tsallis' statistics.
