DOI: 10.1007/s11166-018-9281-7
Abstract: We here estimate a number of alternatives to discounted-utility theory, such as quasi-hyperbolic discounting, generalized hyperbolic discounting, and rank-dependent discounted utility with three different models of probabilistic choice. The data come from a controlled laboratory… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s12232-017-0282-7
Abstract: The paper shows that time preferences and risk preferences are key covariates of self-reported trust. They both predict negatively a measure of generalized trust; however, risk aversion is positively correlated with an index of particularized… read more here.

DOI: 10.1086/713389
Abstract: Intertemporal choices depend on the time preference for discounting future costs and benefits. Allowing complex heterogeneity in time preferences can alter present value estimation of willingness to pay. Using data from a choice experiment about… read more here.
