understand better how subjects with different cognitive abilities learn differently, we estimate a structural model of learning … ability to that of character skills, and find that both cognition and personality affect behavior and learning. More agreeable …

This paper analyzes the effect of information overload on preference or aversion for variety. According to the model, a rational decision maker who suffers from information overload, faces a two-stage decision process, and is choosing from a set of unknown goods will find it optimal at some...

This paper investigates opinion dynamics and social influence in directed communication networks. We study the theoretical properties of a boundedly rational model of opinion formation in which individuals aggregate the information they receive from their neighbors by using weights that are a...

We analyze boundedly rational learning in social networks within binary action environments. We establish how learning … induces learning (i.e., convergence to the optimal action for every agent in every connected network) only in highly … asymmetric environments. In all other environments learning fails in networks with a diameter larger than four. Finally, we …
