Abstract

This presentation explores how financial literacy impacts college students' saving behaviors. Through survey data collected from college students, I analyze whether providing additional information on best savings practices influences their likelihood to save more. Using regression analysis and other statistical models, I examine correlations between financial knowledge and savings habits. The findings contribute to discussions on improving financial education for young adults.
