Save the best for last I: Young adults demonstrate negative time preference, a replication and extension
Castillo, Sun, Frank-Crawford and Borrero replicated and extended a Loewenstein and Prelec procedure in online hypothetical surveys of college students; the share saving the best for last fell as the interval between activities grew and as sequences grew longer; a 192-student survey found lower rates than earlier studies, highest for noxious stimuli and food. Behavior Analysis: Research and Practice 22(2), 143-163, 2022.
