Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Macroeconomics
  • Microeconomics
  • Consumption

Christopher D. Carroll focuses on Consumption, Permanent income hypothesis, Monetary economics, Marginal propensity to consume and Econometrics. Christopher D. Carroll combines subjects such as Buffer stock scheme, Microeconomics, Shock and Recession with his study of Consumption. His research integrates issues of Consumption function and Neoclassical economics in his study of Microeconomics.

His Permanent income hypothesis study incorporates themes from Market liquidity, Labor income and Public economics. He merges many fields, such as Marginal propensity to consume and Aggregate, in his writings. His Econometrics research integrates issues from Capital and Precautionary savings.

His most cited work include:

  • Buffer-Stock Saving and the Life Cycle/Permanent Income Hypothesis (1120 citations)
  • The Buffer-Stock Theory of Saving: Some Macroeconomic Evidence (722 citations)
  • Macroeconomic Expectations of Households and Professional Forecasters (678 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Consumption, Econometrics, Permanent income hypothesis, Marginal propensity to consume and Monetary economics are his primary areas of study. In the subject of general Consumption, his work in Consumption function is often linked to Aggregate, thereby combining diverse domains of study. His research in Econometrics intersects with topics in Buffer stock scheme and Macro.

His work in the fields of Permanent income hypothesis, such as Marginal propensity to save, overlaps with other areas such as Comprehensive income. Christopher D. Carroll interconnects Budget constraint, Cointegration, Inequality and Shock in the investigation of issues within Marginal propensity to consume. His studies deal with areas such as Sovereign wealth fund, Equity premium puzzle and Financial wealth as well as Monetary economics.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Consumption (71.56%)
  • Econometrics (39.34%)
  • Permanent income hypothesis (32.70%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Econometrics (39.34%)
  • Consumption (71.56%)
  • Inequality (8.53%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His scientific interests lie mostly in Econometrics, Consumption, Inequality, Household income and Macroeconomic model. His Econometrics research focuses on subjects like Buffer stock scheme, which are linked to Credit availability and Monetary economics. His Consumption study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Market liquidity, Labour economics, Unemployment and Distribution.

Throughout his Household income studies, Christopher D. Carroll incorporates elements of other sciences such as Permanent income hypothesis and Marginal propensity to consume. His work on Microeconomics expands to the thematically related Permanent income hypothesis. As a member of one scientific family, Christopher D. Carroll mostly works in the field of Macroeconomic model, focusing on Shock and, on occasion, Microfoundations.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The distribution of wealth and the marginal propensity to consume (68 citations)
  • The Distribution of Wealth and the MPC: Implications of New European Data† (33 citations)
  • Sticky Expectations and Consumption Dynamics (25 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Macroeconomics
  • Microeconomics
  • Inflation

His primary areas of study are Econometrics, Consumption, Inequality, Marginal propensity to consume and Household income. His research in Econometrics is mostly focused on Macroeconomic model. Christopher D. Carroll performs multidisciplinary studies into Consumption and Aggregate in his work.

His Inequality study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Permanent income hypothesis and Shock. The Permanent income hypothesis study combines topics in areas such as Microeconomics and Microfoundations. His Distribution of wealth research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Market liquidity, Wealth distribution and Demographic economics.
