- This Project Grant award, funded by the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), supports a collaborative research project to develop new macroeconomic modeling approaches that incorporate learning through reasoning and experience. The $264,480 award, granted on August 15, 2025, will enable researchers at Duke University to create more realistic economic models that better approximate the actual decision-making behavior of people and firms....
- This $285,000 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (SBE) program (CFDA 47.075) will fund research to develop new statistical methods to guide economic and public policy decisions in rapidly changing environments. The research aims to build on recent advances in statistical decision theory, causal inference, and machine learning to create econometric models that can effectively inform evidence-based policymaking while...
- This NSF Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) Project Grant award of $572,000 to the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) will fund research to develop advanced computational methods for solving heterogeneous-agent macroeconomic models. The research will focus on expanding the capabilities of sequence-space methods to enable the analysis of models with diverse types of heterogeneity, such as location choice and firm-level differences. Key deliverables include new...
- This $272,750 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports fundamental research at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) on how people make decisions and interact based on information. The key research focuses include: 1) understanding the long-term implications of people's limited or imperfect memory, which can lead to overconfidence and neglect of rare events; 2) examining how people decide...
- The National Science Foundation awarded a $282,055 Project Grant to the University of Chicago under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075). The three-year award will support the development of a new macro-finance model integrating a standard New Keynesian model of monetary policy with a model of risk discounts in financial markets based on habit formation preferences. The computational platform created under this award will allow researchers to analyze the...
- The National Science Foundation awarded a $221,000 project grant to the University of Chicago under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075). The three-year grant will support collaborative research examining heterogeneity, risk premia, and macroeconomic fluctuations. The funding will enable researchers to investigate how differences across economic agents impact asset prices and aggregate outcomes. Relevant contextual details include the program's goal of...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Social and Economic Science has awarded a $217,000 Project Grant to the National Bureau of Economic Research Inc. (NBER), a non-profit research organization, to conduct three research projects evaluating macroeconomic stabilization policy. The first project provides guidance to empirical macroeconomists on estimating the causal effects of policy interventions. The second project develops methods to predict how the U.S. economy would evolve...
- This $375,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports research to advance Bayesian inference methods for the analysis of complex human data. The project, conducted by Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, will develop an efficient amortized Bayesian inference framework that enables researchers across the social and behavioral sciences to quickly fit, criticize, and adapt complex computational models. The...
- This $279,983 National Science Foundation project grant supports research at Brown University to develop hybrid statistical and econometric modeling methods. Funded under the NSF Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program, the three-year award beginning August 2022 aims to advance modeling approaches that account for imperfect data measurement and the reality that models approximate rather than perfectly represent the world. The research will modify method-of-moments techniques to...
- This $163,588 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports research exploring how individuals learn about situations and personality traits, and how that learning informs their decision-making and moral reasoning. The research team at the University of Texas at Dallas is leveraging behavioral methods, neuroimaging techniques, and computational modeling to (1) identify the neural and cognitive...
