Abstract
In the following analysis, we use data on financial literacy from the 2012, 2015 and 2018 Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) to compare the financial literacy skills of Italian 15-year-olds girls and boys. According to OECD (2020a: 43), financial literacy is «knowledge and understanding of financial concepts and risks, and the skills, motivation and confidence to apply such knowledge and understanding in order to make effective decisions across a range of financial contexts, to improve the financial well-being of individuals and society, and to enable participation in economic life». Before tackling the main topic of the chapter, the gender gap in financial literacy among 15-year-old Italian students, it is worth providing a brief overview of financial education in Italy.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
