Research Topic: The Gap Between Financial Literacy and Actual Economic Behavior.
Conducted under the Honors Program and supervised by Dr. Sharon Garin-Tal, this study investigates a key issue in behavioral finance: Does academic education in Finance translate into better real-world financial management?
While literature suggests financial education improves knowledge, a gap remains in practical application. My research addresses this by utilizing the FMBS (Financial Management Behavior Scale) to compare Finance majors with other disciplines.
The empirical analysis is performed using R programming (Multiple Linear Regression models), examining how variables such as financial independence and work experience moderate the quality of decision-making in savings, credit management, and risk assessment.
