Central banks have become increasingly communicative. An important reason is that democratic societies expect more transparency from public institutions. Central bankers, based on empirical research, also believe that sharing information has economic benefits. Communication is seen as a way to...

This paper provides new evidence on the formation and anchoring process of expectations. We conduct a game experiment and measure the convergence of inflation expectations as well as the impact of credible targets in central banking. In addition, we evaluate the idiosyncratic variables of our...

Our study demonstrates how agents' expectations can interact dynamically with monetary and fiscal policy at the zero lower bound. We study expectation formation near the zero lower bound using a learning-to-forecast laboratory experiment under alternative policy regimes. In our experimental...
