A growing number of empirical studies have aimed to identify dynamic inconsistency by combining diverse sets of elicitation designs and tested the extent to which this important component of individual heterogeneity predicts behavior; however, relatively little consensus on which designs are the...

This research is the first to examine dynamic general equilibrium in a growing two-country economy under decreasing marginal impatience (DMI). The stability condition is shown to be more restrictive than in the case of an endowment economy and/or under increasing marginal impatience (IMI). By...
