The paper studies bargaining games involving players with present-biased preferences. The paper shows that the relative timing of bargaining rewards and bargaining costs will determine whether the players' present-bias will affect bargaining outcomes. In cases where players agree to a bargain in...

The effects of mindfulness interventions on food purchases and consumption are popular topics. Recent studies focus on mindfulness interventions that target overweight and obese populations. We measure the effects of a guided 5-minute body scan mindfulness intervention on 'healthier' food...

The experimental literature on repeated games has largely focused on settings where players discount the future identically. In applications, however, interactions often occur between players whose time preferences differ. We study experimentally the effects of discounting differentials in...

Time discounting suggests that people devalue future outcomes, such that they value the objectively same amount of benefit more if it occurs sooner, rather than later in time. However, receiving future benefits is often the outcome of achieving specific goals. Until such goals have been...

Intertemporal choice refers to the decision-making process involving trade-offs between rewards available at different points in time (smaller sooner versus larger later rewards). In this process, empirical evidence often deviates from the exponential preferences predicted by the normative...
