infinite-horizon learning, and subjective expectations with Euler-equation learning. Under rational expectations, the model … necessitates of large, possibly unrealistically so, degrees of myopia. The same result persists under infinite-horizon learning …, given that agents are still remarkably far-sighted. But, under Euler-equation learning, the model can fit the data with only …

implications of social learning for a monopolist firm's choice of product design. In our model, the firm's design choice determines … of the ex ante quality uncertainty surrounding the product. In comparison to the case where there is no social learning …, social learning can have an ex ante negative impact on the firm's profit, in particular when the consumers are sufficiently …
