Title in English
A multi-method approach on sustainability consciousness and discount rates
Keywords in English
Discount rates
Multi-method
Sustainability consciousness
Sustainable development
Abstract in English
This study explores if individuals' experience and awareness of sustainable development can influence their intertemporal preferences towards longer-term views. To answer this question, we surveyed 90 professionals, assessed their Sustainability Consciousness (SC) scores, compared them to their respective discount rates obtained through an experiment, and adjusted them to subjective time perceptions. Our result showed that, even though SC psychological aspects and theoretical dimensions positively correlate with each other, no direct effect could be observed between SC and discount rates metrics. This study pioneers in applying the Brazilian Portuguese version of the SC Questionnaire and exploring the relationship between SC and short-termism at an individual level.

Abstract in Portuguese
Este estudo explora se a experiência e a consciência dos indivíduos sobre o desenvolvimento sustentável pode influenciar suas preferências intertemporais em relação a visões de longo prazo. Para responder a essa questão, entrevistamos 90 profissionais, avaliamos seus escores de Consciência de Sustentabilidade (CS), comparamos com suas respectivas taxas de desconto obtidas por meio de um experimento e os ajustamos às percepções subjetivas de tempo. Nosso resultado mostrou que, embora os aspectos psicológicos do CS e as dimensões teóricas se correlacionem positivamente, nenhum efeito direto pode ser observado entre as métricas do CS e as taxas de desconto. Este estudo foi pioneiro na aplicação da versão em português do Brasil do questionário SC e na exploração da relação entre o CS e a visão de curto prazo em nível individual.
