    Identifying the New Keynesian Phillips Curve

    Phillips curves are central to discussions of inflation dynamics and monetary policy. New Keynesian Phillips curves describe how past inflation, expected future inflation, and a measure of real marginal cost or an output gap drive the current inflation rate. This paper studies the (potential) weak identification of these curves under GMM and traces this syndrome to a lack of persistence in either exogenous variables or shocks. We employ analytic methods to understand the identification problem in several statistical environments: under strict exogeneity, in a vector autoregression, and in the canonical three-equation, New Keynesian model. Given U.S., U.K., and Canadian data, we revisit the empirical evidence and construct tests and confidence intervals based on exact and pivotal Anderson-Rubin statistics that are robust to weak identification. These tests find little evidence of forward-looking inflation dynamics.Phillips curve, Keynesian, identification, inflation

    Phillips curves are central to discussions of inflation dynamics and monetary policy. New Keynesian Phillips curves describe how past inflation, expected future inflation, and a measure of real marginal cost or an output gap drive the current inflation rate. This paper studies the (potential) weak identification of these curves under generalized methods of moments (GMM) and traces this syndrome to a lack of persistence in either exogenous variables or shocks. The authors employ analytic methods to understand the identification problem in several statistical environments: under strict exogeneity, in a vector autoregression, and in the canonical three-equation, New Keynesian model. Given U.S., U.K., and Canadian data, they revisit the empirical evidence and construct tests and confidence intervals based on exact and pivotal Anderson-Rubin statistics that are robust to weak identification. These tests find little evidence of forward-looking inflation dynamics.

    Knowledge wh and False Beliefs: Experimental Investigations

    No full text
    This repository contains the supporting materials for the manuscript: Jonathan Phillips & B. R. George, (2018) Knowledge *wh* and False Beliefs: Experimental Investigations. *Journal of Semantics* The analysis script (written in R) is titled "knowledge_wh_analyses.R" and reads in the data (in .csv format) for the different experiments labeled "know_wh_studyX". The mansucript, figures, and associated latex code are also available. A simple markdown file with all of the original stimuli used to conduct the studies can be found in the materials folder along with the .docx version of the complete studies (along with the .qsf files used by Qualtrics for conducting the study). A .pdf of the preprint and long with the .tex code for compiling it can be found in the Manuscript folder
