the individual-level models, b) show how this information processing model works in
the context of the public’s evaluation of the economy and c) compare aggregate opinion
about the economy to a benchmark of strict “rational” decision-makers represented by
the opinions of professional forecasters compiled in the Survey of Professional Fore-
casters.

about the direction that the country should take. Starting with
(1960), political scientists have documented that certain segments of the American pub-
lic lack the knowledge or ideological framework for effective political decision-making.
Such studies have long been a source of discouragement for those concerned about a
healthy, democratic polity.
But, when researchers have looked at the public as whole, the outlook has been
more optimistic. In , Pa
