Changing time series properties of US inflation and economic activity, measured as marginal costs, are modeled within a …. Forward as well as backward looking expectation mechanisms for inflation are incorporated and their relative importance … evaluated. Survey data on expected inflation are introduced to strengthen the information in the likelihood. Use is made of …

This paper introduces a form of boundedly-rational inflation expectations in the New Keynesian Phillips curve. The … representative agent is assumed to behave as an econometrician, employing a time series model for inflation that allows for both … permanent and temporary shocks. The near-unity coefficient on expected inflation in the Phillips curve causes the agent …

This paper empirically compares sticky-price and sticky-information Phillips curves considering inflation dynamics in … moments of inflation. Under baseline calibrations, the two models perform similarly in almost all countries. Under estimated … unconditional moments of inflation dynamics better while sticky information is more successful in matching co-movement of inflation …

We revisit these issues by estimating Phillips curves over 1992Q1 to 2015Q1. Our main findings suggest that a Phillips …
