Inconsistency of Time-symmetry Model
Physics Essays, 2021 Can physical objects be in time-symmetry? Physical objects can only exist in a medium that has physical attributes, which means this medium is a type of energy. Is time energy? This article will show that time is not energy and there is no possibility that physical objects could be in time-symmetry.

An Investigation of Time-Inconsistency
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2007 Preference between two future outcomes may change over time—a phenomenon labeled as time inconsistency. The term “time inconsistency” is usually used to refer to cases in which a larger-later outcome is preferred over a smaller-sooner one when both are delayed by some time, but then with the passage of time a preference switches to the smaller-sooner ...

Decreasing Impatience for Health Outcomes and Its Relation With Healthy Behavior
Frontiers in Applied Mathematics and Statistics, 2018 There is a growing amount of literature suggesting people tend to behave inconsistently over time, which is driven by decreasing impatience. In addition, many studies have found relations between discounting estimates from experiments and field behavior,
