Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book studies the evolution and application of social learning theory to economic behavior, especially the economics of intertemporal choice, the choices people make between immediate and delayed gratification. Social learning theory, rooted in psychology but with important economic implications, posits that individuals' economic choices are guided by their subjective valuation of outcomes, the likelihood of those outcomes occurring, and the ability to implement their choices. The book discusses how social learning theory explains economic choice in general and expands on its illumination of the economic concept of intertemporal choice. The author presents the results of a long-term study on time preference among a group of Israeli teens, built on social learning theory paradigms, which discovered psychological and socioeconomic determinants of economic and educational achievements. The book concludes by summarizing and reflecting on the significance of its findings and how they contribute to our understanding of time preference, economic behavior, and educational attainment. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
