We review the recent literature on the determinants and effects of housing market expectations. We begin by providing an overview of existing surveys that elicit housing market expectations, and discuss how those surveys may be expanded in the future. We then document a number of facts about...

The paper investigates social-learning when the information structure is not commonly known. Individuals repeatedly … interact in social-learning settings with distinct information structures. In each round of interaction, they use their … behavior in the long-run if and only if individuals distinguish social-learning settings and receive rich feedback after each …

This exercise offers an innovative learning mechanism to model economic agent's decision-making process using a deep … reinforcement learning algorithm. In particular, this AI agent is born in an economic environment with no information on the … adjusting its actions accordingly (i.e., online learning). I illustrate that the economic agent under deep reinforcement …

agents employ the same recursive learning rule to update beliefs but are characterized by different memory parameters. The … peculiarity of the learning mechanism is that the learning rate is not vanishing in the limit. Differently from what is obtained … in the case of a vanishing learning step, i.e., the stability conditions in the heterogeneous agents case are those of …

This chapter provides a survey of the recent work on learning in the context of macroeconomics. Learning has several … roles. First, it provides a boundedly rational model of how rational expectations can be achieved. Secondly, learning acts … as a selection device in models with multiple REE (rational expectations equilibria). Third, the learning dynamics …
