Exotic Preferences for Macroeconomists
2004
NBER macroeconomics annual
We provide a user's guide to "exotic" preferences: nonlinear time aggregators, departures from expected utility, preferences over time with known and unknown probabilities, risksensitive and robust control, "hyperbolic" discounting, and preferences over sets ("temptations"). We apply each to a number of classic problems in macroeconomics and finance, including consumption and saving, portfolio choice, asset pricing, and Pareto optimal allocations. JEL Classification Codes: D81, D91, E1, G12.
