“…On the other hand, economic situation, educational level of the parents and social class were not significant in explaining male or female leaving home in Spain. These results confirm research done in Slovenia (Kuhar & Reiter, 2014).…”

“…There are not previous findings in Spain to corroborate these trends. In this regard, the results obtained for the case of Slovenia are similar to ours (Kuhar & Reiter, 2014). Employment, age, economic independence, having a partner and children are significant variables to predict leaving parental home.…”

“…According to Mulder and Hooimeijer (2002), for example, in the Netherlands parental finances only affect male independence. Similar results have been encountered by Aassve, Billari, Mazzuco, and Ongaro (2002) for several European countries, but do not seem conclusive in the Mediterranean countries (Kuhar & Reiter, 2014); they only identify that women leave home earlier and men stay at home when there are sufficient economic resources to do so (Chiuri & Del Boca, 2010).…”

“…The relevance of couples (marriage/cohabitation as a predictor for leaving home) highlight the importance of classical youth transition indicators (Domínguez & Castro Martín, 2013;Kuhar & Reiter, 2014), mainly in the case of women. According to Miret (2015) the familiar pattern of emancipation through the couple has remained constant in Spain since 1999, as well as the age difference between partners.…”

“…From this, we propose that stable employment will have more influence on the residential independence of males than on females. Comparative studies find that employment increases residential independence probabilities (Kuhar & Reiter, 2014), but having a job is not sufficient for leaving home in Southern Europe (Cinalli & Giugni, 2013;Le Blanc & Francois, 2006). Other factors intervene that are associated with economic dependence or independence, such as the welfare regime (Lanz & Tagliabue, 2007), precarious labor market conditions (Dolado, 2015), family values and solidarity (Calzada & Brooks, 2013;Reher, 1998).…”

This article presents a critical discussion of the socio-demographic factors which determine leaving parental home and provides new empirical evidence of gendered differences in leaving the parental home in Spain. The study is based on a subsample of young people 19 to 29 years old included in the Youth 2012 survey, which was carried out in Spain by the Youth Institute. Our findings address the importance of employment status, having a partner, and the labour situation to leave home among men. The most important factor affecting early residential leaving home among women seems to be the partnership (marriage or cohabitation), while employment status does not appear to be significant. Economic support from parents is negatively correlated with the odds of being living out of the parental home for both men and women.

Many parents cope with the prolonged financial dependence of their emerging adult children and problems arising from sharing a household, which may challenge parental satisfaction with money management (SMM) and life satisfaction (LS). We created and tested a conceptual model of potential pathways to parental SMM and LS. Data were collected in a sample of 482 student–parent pairs via an online survey that included adjusted questionnaires on financial functioning (Shim et al., Journal of Youth and Adolescence 39:1457–1470, 2010) and Satisfaction with Life Scale (Diener et al., Journal of Personality Assessment 49:71–75, 1985). Relying on the model of financial satisfaction from the student perspective (Sirsch et al., Emerging Adulthood 8:509–520, 2020), we proposed pathways of the family SES, financial parenting (explicit teaching and financial behavior; parent report; 22.8% fathers), and parent–child financial relationships (student report; Mage = 19.94; 45.2% males) to parental SMM and LS. We also anticipated intermediate relations of financial parenting with the students' self-reported financial learning outcomes (cognitive and behavioral/relational). The SES, proactive parental financial behavior, and favorable parent–child financial relationships predicted parental SMM and LS. Financial parenting was linked to the student's positive financial learning outcomes, but only financial knowledge further influenced the financial relationship with their parents. The findings suggest the benefits of successful parental financial socialization for both the offspring's finance-related outcomes and their parents' satisfaction.

Saving of Freshmen and Their Parents in Slovenia: Saving Motives and Links to Parental Financial Socialization

2021

Spending money within the budget, financial planning, and saving represent important positive financial behaviors that contribute to financial satisfaction of emerging adults, which in turn predicts their satisfaction with life. In a mixed method study of Slovenian first-year university students ( N = 515) and one of their parents, we qualitatively and quantitatively analyzed multi-informant survey data collected online on their motivation to save money and the factors that influence the students’ choice (demographics, parental saving, and parental financial socialization). More than half of the freshmen and their parents saved money, mostly for long-term financial goals, larger investments, financial security in the future, and with self-gratification motives. Saving and the motives for saving were moderately associated within the student–parent dyads: The students whose parents saved tended to save themselves, and the saving motives of parents and their emerging adult children also showed similarities. The role of parents as agents of financial socialization in the students’ healthy financial behavior was supported by significant associations between the students' recollection of parental socialization practices (direct financial teaching and financial monitoring) and their money saving.
