Constrained versus Unconstrained Rational Inattention [PDF]

open access: yesGames, 2021
The rational inattention literature is split between two versions of the model: in one, mutual information of states and signals are bounded by a hard constraint, while, in the other, it appears as an additive term in the decision maker’s utility ...

Rational inattention and tonic dopamine.

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2021
Slow-timescale (tonic) changes in dopamine (DA) contribute to a wide variety of processes in reinforcement learning, interval timing, and other domains.

Rational inattention and aggregate fluctuations [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2009
This paper introduces the rational inattention hypothesis (RI) - that agents process information subject to finite channel constraints - into a stochastic growth model with permanent technology shocks.

Signal Extraction and Rational Inattention [PDF]

open access: yesEconomic Inquiry, 2014
In this paper we examine the implications of two theories of informational frictions, signal extraction (SE) and rational inattention (RI), for optimal decisions and economic dynamics within the linear-quadratic-Gaussian (LQG) setting. We first show that

Rational Inattention and Organizational Focus [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Economic Review, 2015
This paper studies optimal communication flows in organizations. A production process can be coordinated ex ante, by letting agents stick to a prespecified plan of action.

Optimal sticky prices under rational inattention [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2009
This paper presents a model in which price setting firms decide what to pay attention to, subject to a constraint on information flow. When idiosyncratic conditions are more variable or more important than aggregate conditions, firms pay more attention ...

Experimental evidence on rational inattention [PDF]

open access: yesFederal Reserve Bank of Dallas, Working Papers, 2011
We show that rational inattention theory of Sims (2003) provides a rationalization of choice models à la Luce and gives a structural interpretation to probability curvature parameters as reflecting costs of processing information.

Business cycle dynamics under rational inattention [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2011
We develop a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium model with rational inattention by households and firms. Consumption responds slowly to interest rate changes because households decide to pay little attention to the real interest rate.

Rational inattention and employer learning [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2010
Research on employer learning has provided important insights into the dynamic process that determines individual wages, especially during the early part of a worker's career.

The rational inattention filter

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2017
Dynamic rational inattention problems used to be difficult to solve. This paper provides simple, analytical results for dynamic rational inattention problems. We start from the benchmark rational inattention problem.
