For decisions whose consequences accrue over time, there are several possible techniques to compute total utility. One is to discount utilities of future consequences at some appropriate rate. The second is to discount per-period certainty equivalents. And the third is to compute net present...

This paper explores how some widely studied classes of nonexpected utility models could be used in dynamic choice situations. A new 'sequential consistency' condition is introduced for single-stage and multi-stage decision problems. Sequential consistency requires that if a decision maker has...

Two core meanings of 'utility' are distinguished. 'Decision utility' is the weight of an outcome in a decision. 'Experienced utility' is a hedonic quality, as in J. Bentham's usage. Experienced utility can be reported in real time (instant utility) or in retrospective evaluations of past...
