Behavioral learning equilibria
We propose behavioral learning equilibria as a plausible explanation of coordination of individual expectations and aggregate phenomena such as excess volatility in stock prices and high persistence in inflation. Boundedly rational agents use a simple univariate linear forecasting rule and correctly forecast the unconditional sample mean and first-order sample autocorrelation. In the long run, ...
متن کاملFinancial Constraints , Endogenous Markups , and Self - fulfilling Equilibria
3 We show that self-fulfilling equilibria and indeterminacy can easily arise in a simple financial accelerator model with reasonable 4 parameter calibrations and without increasing returns in production. A key feature for generating indeterminacy in our model is 5 the countercyclical markup due to the procyclical loan to output ratio. We illustrate, via simulations, that our financial accelerat...
متن کاملLearning from Others' Mistakes
One often hears the lament that medical care in India lags behind that of developed countries. At times, however, one cannot help but feel that in some ways this is a blessing in disguise, because by the time a particular method of treatment gets accepted and adopted in India, we also have knowledge of its various short-comings. If such information is appropriately made use of, it should enable...
متن کاملLearning from mistakes.
We re-examine the commonly held view that learning and memory necessarily require potentiation of synapses. A simple neuronal model of self-organized learning with no positive reinforcement is presented. The strongest synapses are selected for propagation of activity. Active synaptic connections are temporarily "tagged" and subsequently depressed if the resulting output turns out to be unsucces...
متن کاملSelf-fulfilling Bias in Multiagent Learning
Learning in a multiagent environment is complicated by the fact that as other agents learn, the environment effectively changes. Moreover, other agents’ actions are often not directly observable, and the actions taken by the learning agent can strongly bias which range of behaviors are encountered. We define the concept of a conjectural equilibrium, where all agents’ expectations m-e realized, ...
