Abstract
The study investigates the dynamic relationship between education quality and economic growth in developed and developing countries for the period 2000–2020. Considering the Group Mean Fully Modified OLS (GM-FMOLS) model, the results prove the existence of long-run equilibrium relationships among observed variables and that education quality has a strong and significant positive impact on economic growth. A Panel Vector Error Correction Model (PVECM) has been adopted to show the long-run and short-run causality among the variables across the countries. The PVECM result reveals the presence of long-run and short-run bidirectional causality between education quality and economic growth.
期刊介绍:
The Bulletin of Economic Research is an international journal publishing articles across the entire field of economics, econometrics and economic history. The Bulletin contains original theoretical, applied and empirical work which makes a substantial contribution to the subject and is of broad interest to economists. We welcome submissions in all fields and, with the Bulletin expanding in new areas, we particularly encourage submissions in the fields of experimental economics, financial econometrics and health economics. In addition to full-length articles the Bulletin publishes refereed shorter articles, notes and comments; authoritative survey articles in all areas of economics and special themed issues.
