We estimate two “endogenous” asymmetry: (i) whether negative and positive government spending change has different multiplier impact on real output and employment; (ii) whether big or small change has different effects. Our empirical results show there are asymmetric effects in terms of positive and negative government spending, but the asymmetric effect of positive and negative government spending can vary for different dependent variables and there is no significant asymmetric effect on employment. For the asymmetry of big and small government spending, we observe the same asymmetric property for output and employment. In both cases, the differences of the effect of big and small change are non-significant. Our main results are robust to intersection of “endogenous” factors effects, alternative specification (or other additional controls) and longer change interval, but asymmetric effect might differ among different production sectors.","PeriodicalId":503570,"journal":{"name":"Academic Journal of Management and Social Sciences","volume":"37 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139277071","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study was conducted in the 2023 academic year. The research design is the quantitative approach utilizing the descriptive comparative-correlational research design. The sample size was 350 students who participate in MOOC courses in Hunan Province. And for the interview questions-10 teachers participated in the interview. SPSS22.0 version was used to process and analyze the results of the questionnaire survey. Results showed that there were more male student-respondents who participated in this study. Majority of the respondents are below 20 years old, and most of them have used the platform for at least 3 years. The highest ranked dimension in effectiveness is the effectiveness of the course designs which suggests that the course designs in the MOOC platforms are extremely effective. Meanwhile, the least of the dimensions is the course materials which also suggests that the course materials are extremely effective. Students who are 20 years and below have significantly higher assessment scores for course materials, structure and presentation, and overall effectiveness of course platforms compared to those who are 22 years old. Furthermore, there are no significant differences in the assessment of the students on course design among levels of age and years of use. However, the assessment of female students on course design is significantly higher compared to male students. On the other hand, in teachers’ ability, the highest ranked dimension is the teachers’ ability in interactive learning which suggests that the teachers are extremely competent. The least of the dimensions is the teachers’ ability in their teaching styles which also suggests that the teaching styles of the teachers proved that they are extremely competent. There are no significant differences in the assessment of the students about their teacher’s ability in MOOCs and in terms of interactive learning and knowledge of course content among levels of sex, ge, and years of use. As for students’ satisfaction, he highest ranked dimension is the students’ satisfaction with the learning outcomes which suggests that the students are extremely satisfied. The least of the dimensions is the students’ satisfaction with the attitude towards the use of online courses which suggests that the students are extremely satisfied. There are no significant differences in the level of satisfaction of the students in utilizing MOOCs based on learning outcomes, course engagement, and attitude toward the use of online courses among levels of sex, age, and years of use.
