This research project evaluates the extent of heterogeneity in time discounting among elderly Americans, as well as its … experiment, we show how differences in discounting patterns are associated with characteristics of particular importance in … elderly populations, such as serious health and mental conditions. We then relate our discounting measure to key outcome …
