How to measure time preferences: An experimental comparison of three methods [PDF]
Judgment and Decision Making, 2013 In two studies, time preferences for financial gains and losses at delays of up to 50 years were elicited using three different methods: matching, fixed-sequence choice titration, and a dynamic ``staircase'' choice method.

The Time Is Ripe: Thinking about the Future Reduces Unhealthy Eating in Those with a Higher BMI
Foods, 2020 Research suggests that being oriented more towards the future (than the present) is correlated with healthier eating. However, this research tends to be correlational, and thus it is unclear whether inducing people to think about their future could ...

Application of the symbolic regression program AI-Feynman to psychology
Frontiers in Artificial Intelligence, 2023 The discovery of hidden laws in data is the core challenge in many fields, from the natural sciences to the social sciences. However, this task has historically relied on human intuition and experience in many areas, including psychology.

Stability of Time Preferences [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2010 Individuals frequently face intertemporal decisions. For the purposes of economic analysis, the preference parameters assumed to govern these decisions are generally considered to be stable economic primitives. However, evidence on the stability of time preferences is notably lacking.

Domain-specific temporal discounting and temptation [PDF]
Judgment 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

Risk Preferences Are Not Time Preferences [PDF]
American Economic Review, 2012 Risk and time are intertwined. The present is known while the future is inherently risky. This is problematic when studying time preferences since uncontrolled risk can generate apparently present-biased behavior. We systematically manipulate risk in an intertemporal choice experiment.

A Behavioral Foundation of Satiation and Habituation
Mathematics, 2023 Tastes change over time. People’s tastes are distorted through two channels: satiation formation and habit formation. In this paper, we develop a theoretical foundation of satiation and habituation by an axiomatic approach.

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,

Visual attention and time preference reversals [PDF]
Judgment and Decision Making, 2021 Time preference reversal refers to systematic inconsistencies between preferences and bids for intertemporal options. From the two eye-tracking studies (N1 = 60, N2 = 110), we examined the underlying mechanisms of time preference reversal.
