We introduce learning in a dynamic game of international pollution, with ecological uncertainty. We characterize and … ecological uncertainty but they gain information (learn) about it. We then compare our learning model with the benchmark model of … anticipative learning induces a decrease in total emissions, but not necessarily in individual emissions. Further, the effect of …

Observational learning is typically examined when agents have precise information about their position in the sequence … individuals and receive a private signal about the state of the world. We show that social learning is robust to position … uncertainty. Under any sampling rule satisfying a stationarity assumption, learning is complete if signal strength is unbounded …

The recent crisis in the United States has often been associated with substantial amounts of policy uncertainty. In this paper we ask how uncertainty about fiscal policy affects the impact of fiscal policy changes on the economy when the government tries to counteract a deep recession. The...

We consider dynamic team production in the presence of uncertainty. Team members receive interim feedback that depends on both their current effort level and the project's uncertain prospects. In this environment, each member can encourage the others by making them more optimistic about the...
