Recent research showing negative correlations between detrended output and prices during the postwar period has brought … into question the conventional wisdom that prices are procyclical. However, this finding has been shown to be sensitive to … the sample period considered. This paper examines the relationship between output and prices in the frequency domain …

The model also shows that the treatment of expectations matter; a …
