| Research Abstract |
Gul and Pesendorfer (2001) model a decision maker who suffers from temptation at the moment of choice. Their model can explain many empirical findings such as time inconsistent behavior. Unlike their model, we admit non-linear costs of self-control, and explain more experimental evidence such as Allais Paradox or violation of Weak Axiom of Revealed Preference within the framework of temptation and self-control.
