Several recent empirical studies that examine the dynamics of government bond yields not only substantiate Keynes’s view that the long-term interest rate responds markedly to the short-term interest rate but also have relevance for macroeconomic theory and policy. This article relates Keynes’s discussions of money, the state theory of money, financial markets, investors’ expectations, uncertainty, and liquidity preference to the dynamics of government bond yields for countries with monetary sovereignty. Investors’ psychology, herding behavior in financial markets, and uncertainty about the future reinforce the effects of the short-term interest rate and the central bank’s monetary policy actions on the long-term interest rate.

Earlier examples demonstrated instances where monopoly interests might conflict with those of consumers in matters of quality choice. This article points to a more general propensity toward excessively high levels of quality under a monopoly market structure.

Performance on AP exams in economics may also affect students’ economics major completion. This study uses binary probit estimations to assess how participation in and performance on AP exams in economics affects students’ completion of an economics major. The findings suggest students who take both AP exams in economics are significantly more likely to graduate with an economics major compared with non-AP students who complete their introductory economics coursework in college. In addition, strong performance on the AP Microeconomics exam significantly increases a student’s probability of earning an economics major. Receiving high scores on both AP Economics exams is also significantly and positively correlated with economics major completion.

Focusing on the teaching methods in introductory economics courses (i.e., principles and survey courses), the authors find that very little has changed in the past quarter-century. The typical instructor in introductory courses is predominantly a male, Caucasian, with a PhD. “Chalk and Talk” remains the preferred method of instruction in introductory courses, along with the use of textbooks. The use of “student(s) with student(s)” discussions in the classroom, as well as cooperative learning/small-group assignments, has increased since 2010. Lessons, activities, and references that address diversity, inclusion, or gender issues, however, are almost never used in introductory economics courses.

We also explore the JEE’s impact on the development of teaching-related research through citation analysis over the course of the journal’s various editorial regimes.
