Estimating individual rates of discount: a meta-analysis

Marco Percoco and Peter Nijkamp

Applied Economics Letters, 2009, vol. 16, issue 12, 1235-1239

Abstract: In this article, we present the results from a meta-analysis conducted over 44 experimental and field studies, which report individual discount rate estimates. We find in our research that the experimental design of a study has a decisive impact on these estimates, and conclude that meta-analysis, in the case of individual discount rates, has a low transfer value.
