that reflected financial socialization via informal and formal socialization
agents. Some support was provided for the hypothesis concerning
informal agents. Wives in the high group, compared to the low group,
reported that their romantic partner(s) talked to them more often about
how to manage their finances effectively. Furthermore, considering the
entire sample of wives (i.e., with groups collapsed), the effect of this
activity on household net worth was significant after controlling for other
variables that might influence behavior and opportunity (i.e., household
education level, employment sector, and lifetime income).
While we are unaware of any prior studies showing that romantic
partners can serve as informal agents of financial socialization, previous
studies have indicated that alternative significant others (e.g., parents)
can serve this role (e.g., Grinstein-Weiss et al. 2011). Research to date
has provided evidence of gender differences in financial knowledge,
with men being more knowledgeable than women (Lusardi and Mitchell
2008; Zissimopoulos, Karney, and Rauer 2008). We did not measure
financial knowledge in this study but we did measure financial education
activities, which are proposed to lead to financial knowledge, and it is
clear from Table 9 in particular that the husbands engaged in various
financial education activities more frequently than the wives. This makes
it reasonable to assume that the husbands were more knowledgeable
about personal finance than the wives, consistent with prior research.
Consequently, our finding that the romantic partner(s) of the wives in
the high (vs. low) group talked to the wives more often about how to
manage their finances effectively might be explained by the husbands
in the high (vs. low) group more actively sharing their comparatively
enhanced financial knowledge with their wives.
