Rational Inattention Dynamics: Inertia and Delay in Decision-Making
We solve a general class of dynamic rational-inattention problems in which an agent repeatedly acquires costly information about an evolving state and selects actions. The solution resembles the choice rule in a dynamic logit model, but it is biased towards an optimal default rule that is independent of the realized state. The model provides the same fit to choice data as dynamic logit, but, be...
متن کاملInertia and Decision Making
Decision inertia is the tendency to repeat previous choices independently of the outcome, which can give rise to perseveration in suboptimal choices. We investigate this tendency in probability-updating tasks. Study 1 shows that, whenever decision inertia conflicts with normatively optimal behavior (Bayesian updating), error rates are larger and decisions are slower. This is consistent with a d...
متن کاملBusiness Cycle Dynamics under Rational Inattention∗
This paper studies a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium model with rational inattention. Decisionmakers have limited attention and choose the optimal allocation of their attention. We study the implications of rational inattention for business cycle dynamics. For example, we study how rational inattention affects impulse responses of prices and quantities to monetary policy shocks, aggregat...
