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 to idiosyncratic conditions than to aggregate conditions.

Business Cycle Dynamics Under Rational Inattention [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2011
We develop a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) model with rational inattention and compare its predictions to data. Households and decision-makers in firms have limited attention and optimally allocate their attention. Rational inattention is the only source of slow adjustment.

Rational Inattention and the Business Cycle Effects of Productivity and News Shocks

open access: yesSocial Science Research Network
We solve a real business cycle model with rational inattention (an RI-RBC model). In the RI-RBC model, the growth rates of employment, investment, and output are about as persistent as in the data, with an amount of inattention consistent with survey ...

Rational Inattention: A Research Agenda [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2005
The literature applying information-theoretic ideas to economics has so far considered only Gaussian uncertainty. Ex post Gaussian uncertainty can be justified as optimal when the associated optimization problem is linear-quadratic, but the literature has often assumed Gaussian uncertainty even where it cannot be justified as optimal.

Discrete choice in marketing through the lens of rational inattention

open access: yesQuantitative Marketing and Economics
Models derived from random utility theory represent the workhorse methods to learn about consumer preferences from discrete choice data. However, a large body of literature documents various behavioral patterns that cannot be captured by basic random ...

Rational Inattention and Employer Learning [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2010
Recent research results cast doubt on the validity of the employer learning model by empirically establishing the absence of learning over time among college graduates and by documenting persistent, negative effects of graduating during a recession. This paper extends the employer learning model with the theory of rational inattention in which firms ...

Rational Inattention, Competitive Supply, and Psychometrics* [PDF]

open access: yesThe Quarterly Journal of Economics, 2020
AbstractWe introduce a simple method of recovering attention costs from choice data. Our method rests on a precise analogy with production theory. Costs of attention determine consumer demand and consumer welfare, just as a competitive firm’s technology determines its supply curve and profits.
