What this subfamily is for

When to reach for expectations and policy credibility

Use this subfamily when the question is about anchoring: why a credible inflation target dampens pass-through, how a policy rule changes the slope of the short-run trade-off, and what happens when households stop believing the rule.

Taylor Rule

A monetary-policy route for seeing how the policy rate moves when inflation overshoots or the economy runs above potential.

Core question: How aggressively should the policy rate react to inflation and output gaps?

Phillips Curve

A compact route for tracing how unemployment gaps, anchored inflation, and supply shocks shape the inflation tradeoff.

Core question: How does labor-market slack translate into inflation pressure?
