contribute to our understanding of these issues by postulating a model of income uncertainty within a hyperbolic discounting …/value In traditional exponential discounting, the marginal rate of substitution of consumption between two points depends only …, hyperbolic discounting better fits the data. The authors model choice under uncertainty and focus on the costs caused when …

We use a field experiment and a within-subject design based on multiple Choice Lists (CLs) that integrate time and risk …. Diminishing impatience with extended time horizons is studied by varying time horizons from one week to two years. Time …-dated risky prospects are constant within CLs and are always compared with time-dated certain amounts to identify timedated …

Inspired by experimental evidence, we amend the recursive utility model to let risk aversion decrease with the temporal horizon. Our pseudo-recursive preferences remain tractable and retain appealing features of the long-run risk framework, notably its success at explaining asset pricing...

We study general equilibrium asset prices in a multi-period endowment economy when agents' risk aversion is allowed to depend on the maturity of the risk. We find horizon-dependent riskaversion preferences generate a decreasing term structure of risk premia if and only if volatility is...
