چکیده

This paper focusses on survey expectations and discusses their uses for testing and modeling of expectations. Alternative models of expectations formation are reviewed and the importance of allowing for heterogeneity of expectations is emphasized. A weak form of the rational expectations hypothesis which focusses on average expectations rather than individual expectations is advanced. Other models of expectations formation, such as the adaptive expectations hypothesis, are briefly discussed. Testable implications of rational and extrapolative models of expectations are reviewed and the importance of the loss function for the interpretation of the test results is discussed. The paper then provides an account of the various surveys of expectations, reviews alternative methods of quantifying the qualitative surveys, and discusses the use of aggregate and individual survey responses in the analysis of expectations and for forecasting.

Jordan derivation on trivial extension

Let A be a unital R-algebra and M be a unital A-bimodule. It is shown that every Jordan derivation of the trivial extension of A by M, under some conditions, is the sum of a derivation and an antiderivation.

A Simple Theoretical Explanation of the Forecast Combination Puzzle

This paper offers a theoretical explanation why forecast combination with the estimated optimal weights has often poor performance in applications. The explanation is simple. The properties of the combination are often derived under the assumption that the weights are fixed while in practice they have to be estimated. If the weight estimation is taken into account during the optimality derivati...

On the superstability of a special derivation

The aim of this paper is to show that under some mild conditions a functional equation of multiplicative $(alpha,beta)$-derivation is superstable on standard operator algebras. Furthermore, we prove that this generalized derivation can be a continuous and an inner $(alpha,beta)$-derivation.

Derivation of Optimal Central Bank Transparency for Minimizing the Output Volatility: The Case Study of Organization of Islamic Cooperation

This paper aims to optimize the Central Bank transparency level which corresponds to the minimum of output volatility in 28 states of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (due to the maximum data availability) during the period 2003-2014. For this purpose, the Dincer-Eichengreen index is used, which includes five aspects covering political, economic, procedural, policy, and operational trans...

Analytic Solution of Fuzzy Second Order Differential Equations under H-Derivation

In this paper, the solution of linear second order equations with fuzzy initialvalues are investigated. The analytic general solutions of them using a rstsolution is founded. The parametric form of fuzzy numbers to solve the secondorder equations is applied. The solutions are searched in four cases. Finallythe example is got to illustrate more and the solutions are shown in gures forfour cases.
