“…The sample for the multigenerational project included 128 college-educated emerging adults, 17 parents, and eight grandparents ( N = 153; see Marks et al 2019 for a detailed description of the methods used). Participants also discussed what they wished their parents had taught them about money (and what parents/grandparents wished they had taught their children about money; LeBaron et al 2018b ) and, for emerging adult participants, how they wanted to teach their future children about money (LeBaron et al 2018c ). Although most of the project’s findings supported Gudmunson and Danes’s ( 2011 ) model, LeBaron et al ( 2019 ) proposed experiential learning (“the process of using life experience to internalize [financial] knowledge”; LeBaron et al 2019 , p. 437) as a third primary method of financial socialization based on participants’ reports.…”

“…The dichotomous question used to explore overt financial education could not fully explore the nuanced differences parents may make in their financial socialization decisions with their children. It is possible that clearer, more nuanced measures would give valuable insights into potential gender moderation of not only overt financial teaching, but also other socialization methods such as modeling (Rosa et al, 2018) and experiential learning (LeBaron et al, 2019). Future measures should also examine financial teaching of specific financial concepts to further research on not just how but what parents should be teaching their children about finances (LeBaron et al, 2018a).…”
