The properties of the US model are examined in Chapter 11 of the
1994 book and in Chapters 9, 10,
and 11 of the
1984 book. These chapters
have not been transferred to html, and so they must be read in
pdf format. There is also more recent work examining the properties of the
US model. See
"Evaluating Alternative Monetary
Policy Rules" (with E.P. Howrey).
