The globalizability of temporal discounting. [PDF]

open access: yesNat Hum Behav, 2022
Abstract Economic inequality is associated with preferences for smaller, immediate gains over larger, delayed ones. Such temporal discounting may feed into rising global inequality, yet it is unclear whether it is a function of choice preferences or norms, or rather the absence of sufficient resources for ...

The contrast effect in temporal and probabilistic discounting [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2016
In this information age, messages related to time and uncertainty surround us. At the same time, our daily lives are filled with decisions accompanied by temporal delay or uncertainty.

Temporal discounting and inter-temporal choice in rhesus monkeys [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2009
Humans and animals are more likely to take an action leading to an immediate reward than actions with delayed rewards of similar magnitudes. Although such devaluation of delayed rewards has been almost universally described by hyperbolic discount ...

Temporal Discounting, Emotions and Agency

open access: yesŒconomia, 2017
What kind of emotions could be the causes of temporal discounting and its hyperboloid curve? Not the too general category of “visceral” anticipatory emotions (Loewenstein and Lerner), but more specifically emotions related to agency (“driving ...

Hyperbolically Discounted Temporal Difference Learning [PDF]

open access: yesNeural Computation, 2010
Hyperbolic discounting of future outcomes is widely observed to underlie choice behavior in animals. Additionally, recent studies (Kobayashi & Schultz, 2008 ) have reported that hyperbolic discounting is observed even in neural systems underlying choice.

Domain-specific temporal discounting and temptation [PDF]

open access: yesJudgment and Decision Making, 2010
In this investigation, we test whether temporal discounting is domain-specific (i.e., compared to other people, can an individual have a relatively high discount rate for one type of reward but a relatively low discount rate for another?), and we examine

Humans can adopt optimal discounting strategy under real-time constraints. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2006
Critical to our many daily choices between larger delayed rewards, and smaller more immediate rewards, are the shape and the steepness of the function that discounts rewards with time.

Temporal Discounting Is Associated with an Increased Risk of Mortality among Community-Based Older Persons without Dementia. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
BACKGROUND:Temporal discounting is an important determinant of many health and financial outcomes, but we are not aware of studies that have examined the association of temporal discounting with mortality.

Four converging measures of temporal discounting and their relationships with intelligence, executive functions, thinking dispositions, and behavioral outcomes

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2015
Temporal discounting is the tendency to devalue temporally distant rewards. Past studies have examined the k-value, the indifference point, and the area under the curve as dependent measures on this task.
