Abstract
Moramarco, G. (2025), Regime-Switching Density Forecasts Using Economists' Scenarios. Journal of Forecasting, 44: 833–845. https://doi.org/10.1002/for.3228.
In the third paragraph of Section 3.1 (“Priors and Fed Scenarios”), the sentence “Accordingly, the prior means for the regime-specific intercepts are set to
for the normal times regime,
for the recession regime, and
for the severe recession regime.” contained typographical errors in the formulas.
The correct text is: “Accordingly, the prior means for the regime-specific intercepts are set to
for the normal times regime,
for the recession regime, and
for the severe recession regime.”
In the fifth paragraph of Section 3.3.1 (“Main Results”), the reference to Figure 2 in the sentence “On average, they account for about 35% of the combined forecasts in the case of optimal weights (Figure 2)” was incorrect. The correct reference is to Figure 3.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Forecasting is an international journal that publishes refereed papers on forecasting. It is multidisciplinary, welcoming papers dealing with any aspect of forecasting: theoretical, practical, computational and methodological. A broad interpretation of the topic is taken with approaches from various subject areas, such as statistics, economics, psychology, systems engineering and social sciences, all encouraged. Furthermore, the Journal welcomes a wide diversity of applications in such fields as business, government, technology and the environment. Of particular interest are papers dealing with modelling issues and the relationship of forecasting systems to decision-making processes.
