- TIME DEPENDENT CHANGES IN SOCIAL JUDGEMENT AND CHOICEYaacov Trope; Fiscal Year: 2003..The findings are expected to identify advantages and disadvantages of decisions at different point in time and, thus, help us understand and improve the way people think, plan, and make choices about their future. ..
- Temporal Framing and Self-Consistent ChoiceYaacov Trope; Fiscal Year: 2007..The predicted results would suggest that it may be possible to increase the likelihood of such choices by making individuals think of their choice alternatives from a psychologically distant perspective. ..
