etc.). How did motivation and emotions influence your decision? Did you experience any

internal conflict (a battle between what you wanted versus what you should do)? How did

you resolve this conflict?

1.Lately, the stock market has experienced unprecedented volatility – wild ups and downs.

Discuss how stock trading has created a lot of this volatility and the decisions for stock

traders to buy and sell wildly in terms of hyperbolic discounting.

1.Report on a decision that you were a part of or had witnessed in your organization where

personal motivation and/or emotions on the part of decision maker(s) may have caused a

suboptimal decision to be made.

1.The news has been full of stories lately about the stock market problems, sub-prime

mortgages, and Ponzi schemes. All of these required people to make decisions. Research

one of the stories and discuss how motivation influenced people to make such terrible

decisions. Had exponential discounting played a part in the decision(s) that you had

researched. If so, how?
