On Measuring Time Preferences
We examine the predictive validity of two recent innovations to the experimental measurement of time preferences: the Convex Time Budget (CTB) and the Double Multiple Price List (DMPL). Using comparable experimental methods, the CTB and DMPL are implemented, corresponding parameters are estimated, and out-of-sample prediction is conducted for survey measures of patience and incentivized willing...

While similarly ...
