Adult Economics Female Financial Management - statistics & numerical data Humans Male Ownership - economics Ownership - statistics & numerical data Sex Factors
In a sample of 352 students, correlates of credit card ownership differed by sex. For both men and women, credit card ownership was predicted by their affective attitude toward credit cards. However, whereas for men concern with money as a tactic for gaining power predicted credit card ownership, for women feelings of insecurity about having sufficient money and having a conservative approach to money predicted credit card ownership.
