Synopsis
Explore how social learning shapes the way we save, delay rewards, and make economic choices.
This concise work introduces social learning theory and its view of motivation, then applies it to real questions about time preference and intertemporal decision making. Through a longitudinal study of Israeli youth, it shows how beliefs, trust, and past experiences influence our willingness to wait for larger rewards in education, health, and money. The book connects psychological insight with economic theory to explain why people differ in choosing present versus future benefits.
- Learn the key ideas of social learning theory and how expectancy and reinforcement shape behavior
- See how past experiences and social context influence time preference and delay of gratification
- Review a long-term study linking adolescence traits to later education and earnings
- Understand how a social-learning framework can enrich economic models of choice

Paperback. Etat : New. 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.
