RECESSIONARY GAP: The difference between the equilibrium real production achieved in the short-run aggregate market and full-employment real production the occurs when short-run equilibrium real production is less than full-employment real production.

This is one of two alternative output gaps that can occur when short-run production differs from full employment. The other is an inflationary gap.
