Though prior research has provided substantial information about the intertemporal preferences of individuals, little is known about group or collaborative intertemporal preferences. In the introduction of the current dissertation, we summarize two preliminary studies we carried out that began to investigate intertemporal decision making in a collaborative context. The three experiments included in the current dissertation follow this line of research and seek to gain a better understanding of the psychological and social processes involved in collaborative intertemporal decision making. In Experiment 1, we demonstrated that group members believed to have less \u00e2\u20ac\u0153expertise\u00e2\u20ac  were more influenced by the collaborative experience than members believed to have more \u00e2\u20ac\u0153expertise\u00e2\u20ac . In Experiment 2, a dyadic experiment was carried out where participants either completed a matching judgment task or a binary choice task. Similar patterns of results were found in the two different task environments, which suggest a generality to the observed collaborative effects. Finally, in Experiment 3, greater control was exerted over the intertemporal preferences participants were exposed to. This was accomplished by merely exposing participants to the decisions believed to be made by another individual. By manipulating the decisions participants were exposed to, Experiment 3 tested the ability to intervene and causally shift intertemporal preferences in a predicted direction (i.e., towards more patience or more impatience)."},{"label":"dcterms.available","value":"2017-09-20T16:52:57Z"},{"label":"dcterms.contributor","value":"Rajaram, Suparna"},{"label":"dcterms.creator","value":"Bixter, Michael Thomas"},{"label":"dcterms.dateAccepted","value":"2017-09-20T16:52:57Z"},{"label":"dcterms.dateSubmitted","value":"2017-09-20T16:52:57Z"},{"label":"dcterms.description","value":"Department of Experimental Psychology."},{"label":"dcterms.extent","value":"67 pg."},{"label":"dcterms.format","value":"Monograph"},{"label":"dcterms.identifier","value":"http://hdl.handle.net/11401/77597"},{"label":"dcterms.issued","value":"2015-12-01"},{"label":"dcterms.language","value":"en_US"},{"label":"dcterms.provenance","value":"Made available in DSpace on 2017-09-20T16:52:57Z (GMT).
