Evolution And Nebulousness In Theories, Barry N. Markovsky Aug 1997

Evolution And Nebulousness In Theories, Barry N. Markovsky

Faculty Publications

Social scientists have a clear choice in how they may approach theory development. One path leads to "nebulous" theories that lack any real explanatory power. The other path capitalizes on evolutionary principles of variation and selection, vastly increasing the chances for explanatory success. I illustrate these ideas by reference to "artificial life" programs, and discuss the implications for theory construction in the social sciences.


Monetary Policy Preferences Of Individual Fomc Members: A Content Analysis Of The Memoranda Of Discussion, Henry W. Chappell Jr., Thomas M. Havrilesky, Rob Roy Mcgregor Aug 1997

Monetary Policy Preferences Of Individual Fomc Members: A Content Analysis Of The Memoranda Of Discussion, Henry W. Chappell Jr., Thomas M. Havrilesky, Rob Roy Mcgregor

Faculty Publications

The Memoranda of Discussion provide detailed records of Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting deliberations. Procedures are developed for coding the textual data in the Memoranda and assessing the reliability of those codings. The codings are then used in the estimation of parameters of individual FOMC members' reaction functions. Data from the 1970 to 1976 period are employed in the estimation. In the future, similar methods could be used to analyze newly released transcripts of FOMC meetings held after 1976.
