We introduce behavioral learning equilibria (BLE) into a multi-variate linear framework and apply it to New Keynesian DSGE models. In a BLE, boundedly rational agents use simple but optimal first-order autoregressive (AR(1)) forecasting rules whose parameters are consistent with the observed...

We develop a Canadian behavioral agent-based model (CANVAS) that utilizes Canadian micro- and macroeconomic data for forecasting and policy analysis. CANVAS represents a next-generation modelling effort, as it improves upon the previous generation of models in three dimensions: introducing...
