Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

A sample of 966 young adults from the province of Quebec (Canada) participated in this study, which aimed to identify the determinants of knowledge about savings and investments and their relative importance. Our findings show that knowledge about savings and investments is rather low. Canadian-born males with high personal annual gross income and education are likely to have a higher level of knowledge in this area than their counterparts. Personal finance education, received outside of high school, attitude towards savings and having met with a personal finance professional, have a significant positive impact on this knowledge. The usefulness of financial education and the need to increase financial independence among young female adults are discussed.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
