There is much debate as to why economics students display more self-interested behavior than other students: whether homo economicus self-select into economics or students are instead “indoctrinated” by economics learning, and whether these effects impact on preferences or beliefs about others’ behavior. Using a classroom survey (n > 500) with novel behavioral questions we show that, compared to students in other majors, econ students report being: (i) more self-interested (in particular, less compassionate or averse to advantageous inequality) already in the first year and the difference remains among more senior students; (ii) more likely to think that people will be unwilling to work if unemployment benefits increase (thus, endorsing the standard neoclassical view about others and the market), but only among senior students. These results suggest self-selection in preferences and indoctrination in beliefs.

This research attempts to investigate the level of acceptance of economics learning media through movie scenes using the Technological Acceptance Model (TAM) approach. Data were obtained using a Likert scale questionnaire from 396 students of the Faculty of Teacher Training and Education in Surakarta, Central Java, who had taken the learning media course. Partial Least Square Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with reflective constructs was employed as the analysis method. The variables studied including Perceived Ease of Use (PEU), Perceived Usefulness (PU), Attitude Toward using (ATU), and Behavioral Intention to Use (BIU). The results showed a significant relationship in all direct effects and indirect effects studied. This study also found that the Perceived Ease of Use learning media movie scene had the greatest influence on the construct. The construct was also recognized to have strong predictive relevance to Behavioral intention to use. The findings imply that in order to be approved by teachers, learning media developers must pay attention to teacher perceptions of ease of use. This research contributes to TAM research in the field of education with PLS-SEM analysis to the stage of predictive relevance.

Significant changes in approaches to the monetary regulation of economic stabilization and growth are currently being completed. The processes of change that began under the influence of the global financial crisis have now become inevitable. Determining the main directions of these changes and the possible consequences for small open economies is one of the most important tasks of scientific research. Timely adaptation of national monetary systems in the initial stages of transformation can enable countries to overcome the consequences of the pandemic and make up for lost time. The article analyzes a number of the most characteristic changes in practice and theoretical views on monetary policy. Among them is the change in views on the role and purpose of inflation targeting under the influence of many years of massive emission practices. The identified synchronism of inflation for developed and developing countries gives reason to expect attempts at quantitative easing on the part of developing countries. While they may be postponed due to the acceleration of producer price growth. The tendency to revise the fiscal component in the dualism of fiscal policy to strengthen the targeting of emission is substantiated. The low efficiency of measures of monetary easing and stimulation through the credit channel is noted. The limited impact on the growth of aggregate demand with an increase in the debt burden should lead to a revision of the existing practice of emission and reduction of interest rates. One of the important drivers of changes in monetary regulation is the process of digitalization. Despite certain risks of deficiencies in the effectiveness of central bank monetary policy, the spread of shadow banking, digital currencies and direct lending operations, digitalization is creating new opportunities for financial control and audit. On the basis of the analyzed trends, a conclusion was made about the current tasks of modernization of monetary policy in countries with small open economies, including Ukraine.
