How to adapt it

Use broad frequency bands rather than amounts or account details. Adapt the examples to the program's audience and local context. For a small group, avoid combining age, income and personal circumstances in a way that makes answers identifiable.

When to ask

Collect before a course or clinic, then repeat selected questions after it with a clear interpretation plan.

How to interpret responses

Look for differences between confidence and practical routines, such as bill reminders or an emergency plan. Use aggregated themes to design workshops; do not label respondents as financially capable or incapable from this unvalidated questionnaire.

Research context

A George Fox University study of undergraduates distinguished financial knowledge, behavior and attitudes. Its abstract cautions that knowledge alone does not necessarily translate into prudent behavior. This student sample cannot define outcomes for every community or age group. Read the Peach and Yuan, George Fox University abstract and its limits before using the finding as context. The questionnaire on this page was written for this use case; it is not a scientifically validated instrument.
