Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Microeconomics
  • Social psychology
  • Macroeconomics

Hyperbolic discounting, Microeconomics, Procrastination, Time-inconsistent preferences and Dynamic inconsistency are his primary areas of study. His studies in Hyperbolic discounting integrate themes in fields like Discount function, Pareto principle, Econometrics and Discounted utility. The concepts of his Microeconomics study are interwoven with issues in Projection bias, Consumption, Affective forecasting and Punishment.

His Procrastination study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Incentive, Task, Private information retrieval and Self-control. His Time-inconsistent preferences research includes elements of Welfare economics, Intertemporal choice, Temporal discounting, Time preference and Exponential discounting. The study incorporates disciplines such as Social psychology and Process in addition to Dynamic inconsistency.

His most cited work include:

  • Time Discounting and Time Preference: A Critical Review (3946 citations)
  • Doing It Now or Later (2088 citations)
  • Projection Bias in Predicting Future Utility (729 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Ted O'Donoghue mainly investigates Social psychology, Dynamic inconsistency, Econometrics, Hyperbolic discounting and Procrastination. He combines subjects such as Variety, Behavioral economics and Process with his study of Social psychology. While the research belongs to areas of Dynamic inconsistency, Ted O'Donoghue spends his time largely on the problem of Self-control, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Gratification and Action.
