We investigate the relevance of the Carroll's sticky information model of inflation expectations for four major … European economies (France, Germany, Italy and the United Kingdom). Using survey data on household and expert inflation … expectations we argue that the model adequately captures the dynamics of household inflation expectations. We estimate two …
