Power and Reduced Temporal Discounting
Psychological Science, 2013Decision makers generally feel disconnected from their future selves, an experience that leads them to prefer smaller immediate gains to larger future gains. This pervasive tendency is known as temporal discounting, and researchers across disciplines are interested in understanding how to overcome it. Following recent advances in the power literature,

Social Discounting: Preference Reversals and Links with Temporal Discounting
Review of Behavioral Economics, 2020The purpose of this study is twofold. First, we test the hypothesis that the preference reversal occurs in social discounting. Second, we investigate the relationship between social discounting and temporal discounting. In the conducted experiments, participants made hypothetical choices between a smaller monetary reward for a less socially distant ...

Discounted-Value Representations of Temporal Preferences
Mathematics of Operations Research, 1985This paper examines the proposition that temporal preferences may be represented in terms of discount functions. An analytical framework is developed within which preferences are defined over a set of programs or prospects over time. Necessary and sufficient conditions for generalized discounting, discounting as well as exponential discounting are ...

Interpersonal relatedness and temporal discounting
Journal of Social and Personal Relationships, 2018The present two studies tested the hypothesis that interpersonal relatedness (IR) affects temporal discounting differently in different interpersonal situations. Using two samples of Chinese university students, interpersonal exclusion was primed among one group of participants, whereas a control group received neutral priming.

Temporal Discounting and Number Representation
Journal of Behavioral Finance, 2013Intertemporal decisions usually involve numbers: subjects decide between rewards, with different delays and probabilities. This paper is a brief overview of findings in the area of number cognition, followed by some theoretical applications of these findings in intertemporal decisions. In particular, the fact that numbers are neither linearly perceived

Proceedings of the 2011 IEEE International Symposium on Sustainable Systems and Technology, 2011
One of the major problems existing in current LCA is the temporal homogeneity issue in the compiled life cycle inventory data [1–2]. In current practice, the life cycle inventory data are aggregated along a product's life cycle without considering the data's temporal differences. The aggregating approach introduces temporal uncertainties in LCA and may

Heaven can wait. How religion modulates temporal discounting
Psychological Research, 2013Evidence suggests that religious systems have specific effects on attentional and action control processes. The present study investigated whether religions also modulate choices that involve higher-order knowledge and the delay of gratification in particular.

Temporal Discounting of Future Risks
2017This chapter discusses how temporal discounting might lead a consumer to choose a smaller, more immediate reward over a larger, delayed reward because the present value of the delayed reward is discounted. Time discounting models, such as exponential and hyperbolic pattern discounting, are useful in explaining people’s intertemporal preferences and ...
