摘要翻译:
一个善意的委托人向一个理性的不注意的代理人提供信息,而不将代理人处理信息的成本内部化。无论主体提供什么信息,代理都可以选择忽略某些信息。我们研究了一个可处理的二次支付模型中的最优信息提供,其中完全披露不是最优的。我们刻画了激励相容的信息策略,即代理人愿意充分关注的信息策略。在一个有三种状态的主要例子中,最优披露涉及以中间注意力成本的信息失真。随着成本的增加,最优信息突然从淡化状态转变为夸大状态。

英文摘要:
A well-intentioned principal provides information to a rationally inattentive agent without internalizing the agent's cost of processing information. Whatever information the principal makes available, the agent may choose to ignore some. We study optimal information provision in a tractable model with quadratic payoffs where full disclosure is not optimal. We characterize incentive-compatible information policies, that is, those to which the agent willingly pays full attention. In a leading example with three states, optimal disclosure involves information distortion at intermediate costs of attention. As the cost increases, optimal information abruptly changes from downplaying the state to exaggerating the state.
