Matthew B on 19 Nov 10Chien-Wen, Lai. "How Financial Attitudes and Practices Influence the Impulsive Buying Behavior of College and University Students." Social Behavior & Personality: An International Journal 38.3 (2010): 373-380. Academic Search Complete. EBSCO. Web. 18 Nov. 2010. This article shows certain indications, or in other words tell tale signs that many people who have problems with financial spending hold in common. The article has tables that show results on whether or not students had plans on how to spend their money, if they actually kept track of their money, and why they spent their money. The main point of the article was the difference between compulsive, and pre-determined purchases of college students. I also thought that this article would be good because the field work was done on international students. This shows that financial literacy is just not a problem amongst college students in the states. This problem is occurring all over the world and this article shows that.
