Fig. 2: Global indications of intertemporal choice.
a–f, Maps of choice preferences in aggregate and by individual anomaly indicate heterogeneity in intertemporal choice patterns. While some subtle patterns emerge, particularly stronger preferences for delayed gains in higher-income regions, choice preferences are broadly consistent across 61 countries in the sense that all anomalies appear in all locations. No location consistently presents extremes (high or low) of each anomaly. The results are based on the models specified in Supplementary Table 13. g,h, Conditional smooth effects (black) and 95% confidence intervals (light blue).
