This study has proven that the economic system is determined by various components, in particular, it includes the real sector of the economy, which is formed on mega-, macro, meso-, micro-and nano-levels. In addition, it was proved that the nano-level is determined by the activities of individuals whose economic activity begins with the birth and attitude of parents, attending various educational and upbringing institutions, and studying at university. A separate segment of the nano-level of the economic system is the baby industry responsible for the production of goods and services for children and future parents. All these aspects are indicators of the development of the baby economy. Such an economic category as the baby economy was separated and defined. The study uses the following methods: analysis, synthesis, structural analysis, systemic approach, observation, comparison, multifactor regression. These methods made it possible to achieve the results, which involve isolation of the baby economy as a component of nanoeconomy and definition of such components of the baby economic segment of nanoeconomy as a family or household economy, the baby industry, the economy of the educational process and upbringing. For this purpose, the value-institutional approach was applied. In addition, multifactorial analysis of the impact of indicators of the baby economy development on the population of a country with a transitive economy with incomes below the subsistence minimum was performed. This analysis identified a direct but minor relationship between these phenomena, which demonstrates the need to intensify and create a policy for the baby economy in similar states. The theoretical significance of the obtained results is determined by the introduction of a new economic category of "the baby economy" for the formation of a nano economic component within socio-economic systems.

“…Geographic factors such as district poverty and local educational opportunities may explain the socio-economic discrepancy in the academic match. These matching issues in basic education significantly influence individual future income and career opportunities, including university participation and labour market performance (Maragkou, 2020). However, social justice comes in several situations, from developing the vision of culturally responsive schools not to leaving children behind (Hytten & Bettez, 2011;Cuervo, 2016).…”

“…The vocational education school carried out the high-intensity practical study with a specific industrial-based curriculum and competency ( Muja et al., 2019 ). However, in some developing countries, manpower inequality in terms of practical skills and knowledge becomes a critical issue ( Forster and Bol, 2018 ; Maragkou, 2020 ; Mohapatra et al., 1992 ; Xie et al., 2020 ). Thus, the role of a formal curriculum and standardized competency is very important to bring manpower equality which means the students are eligible for the industrial and business company requirements after graduating from vocational education.…”

This article provides an alternative competency test model for vocational education schools in Central Java, Indonesia which particularly for automotive skill competency in order to replace the current competency test model that has been implemented for several decades which the author's concern about the students' accomplishment during the competency test, aimed to improve competency test results to increase the students' job opportunity in the labor market. Currently, the applied competency test model is the 'Continuity' model, where the students are given five tasks and should be finished within five hours with limited break time. This model tends to increase students' fatigue and stress levels. Consequently, the students lose their focus and concentration which adversely impacts their competency test results. In this study, the new competency test model namely the 'Discontinuity' competency test model was proposed aiming to overcome the issue of the 'Continuity' model. To research the effect of the 'Discontinuity' model implementation on the students' competency test results and vocational school competency test management, a study was done among 100 students and 50 teachers in 10 vocational education schools around Central Java, Indonesia. The results show that the 'Discontinuity' competency test model gives a significant improvement in the students' competency test scores. This reasonably happened due to the implementation of the 'Discontinuity' model gives the students time to break for an hour of each competency task. Without this break time, fatigue and stress levels of the students will significantly increase which adversely affect the students' competency final score. In addition, the new management of the competency test was proposed in this research.
