In an asset-pricing model, risk-averse agents need to forecast the conditional variance of a stock's return. A near-rational restricted perceptions equilibrium exists in which agents believe prices follow a random walk with a conditional variance that is self-fulfilling. When agents estimate...

The present paper draws on the main issues in the production of scientific knowledge based upon grounded theory in management accounting research. This piece of work is a bibliographic study confronting grounded theory practices with the expectations of its founders (Glaser et Strauss, 1967; Strauss...

This paper demonstrates that an asset pricing model with least-squares learning can lead to bubbles and crashes as endogenous responses to the fundamentals driving asset prices. When agents are risk-averse they need to make forecasts of the conditional variance of a stock¡¯s return....
