We investigate a simple macroeconomic model where rational inflation expectations is replaced by a boundedly rational, sticky, response to changes in the actual inflation rate. Our expectations rule differs from standard sticky models and incorporates truly 'stuck' behavior as opposed to delayed...

We continue an investigation into a class of agent-based market models that are motivated by a psychologically-plausible form of bounded rationality. Some of the agents in an otherwise efficient hypothetical market are endowed with differing tolerances to the tension caused by being in the...

In a financial market, for agents with long investment horizons or at times of severe market stress, it is often changes in the asset price that act as the trigger for transactions or shifts in investment position. This suggests the use of price thresholds to simulate agent behavior over much...

When modelling the aggregate behavior of a population over long periods of time the standard approach is to consider the system as always being in equilibrium -- using averaging procedures based upon assumptions of rationality, utility-maximization and a high degree of independence amongst the...
