learning schemes can be compared in terms of the consumption behaviour that they yield. We show that neither purely adaptive … learning, nor social learning based on imitation can ensure satisfactory consumption behaviours.

This paper analyzes an entry timing game with uncertain entry costs. Two firms receive costless signals about the cost of a new project and decide when to invest. We characterize the equilibrium of the investment timing game with private and public signals. We show that competition leads the two...

This paper aims to analyze learning as a two-type process. A dynamic equilibrium process represents a stable learning … process, that may express an individualistic behavioral learning or an organizational adaptation. A teleological process … represents an intentional, goal-oriented, learning process. This second type of learning can express an individualistic cognitive …
